Correction. I don't think we need a 100% sentient AI. Nor do I want one.

But the majority, in this case, is only 0.5%. I disagree when they try to sell me that 99.5% is the minority and that the majority will benefit

Brings up the problem of if they decide to stop humans from breaking the three law's by breaking the three laws.(IRobot reference) Anyways, for the OP. I don't think we really need an AI. Nor do I want one. And if I could, I'd seriously think about regulating AI programs for businesses. Ultimately, we'll be able to create expert programs in many different fields, such as medicine, engineering, etc. The perfect AI component of that is needless. We'll only ever have to have it an expert in a single field. Why make a robot that's hugely expensive, risky, and complicated for both fields, when you can create two simpler robots for each field? Either way, AI is going to such. I don't think of it like Artificial intelligence as a mechanical mind. Mechanical muscles(machines) put many people out of their job. But it also created new ones that involved thinking more than physical labor. Mechanical minds will put those people out of jobs, and this time, there are no jobs to back them up. Think about horses. When they came out with mechanical muscles, aka machines, most horses were out of the job. And it didn't create new jobs for them. "Better technology creates additional better jobs for horses" It sounds ridiculous to say it. Yet, replace "horses" with "humans" and suddenly we think it's logical. Mechanical minds will make human workers virtually obsolete, just like mechanical muscles made horses virtually obsolete. I'm not going to even bother trying to gain a successful career. By the time I build up my experience, technology would be well past me. In fact, much of it already is. So I disagree with bringing AI into this era.

A revolt? Dude. It's gonna take a whole lot more than Trump to cause an open revolt. Unless I took that wrong and you meant in a different way.

Very few educated people support Trump. However, there are still a large number of educated people who support the Republican Party.

I know right. I feel like most of them though associate politicians with curruption.

I'll take your word for it, but why do you need to know?

Actually, I feel like we would agree depression is something almost universally in common with all suicides? Perhaps we should look into relations between depression and other factors. Or no?

I have no idea how I'd test that. I can't believe it's so hard to prove cutting off a guy's head mean's he's dead in 2000 years.

Grudgingly, I admit you're right. I'm gonna back out of this conversation.

1. I know 3 personally, and people did a lot talking behind their back. Yet I never heard anyone bring up about how it was actually her fault, nor that they were in blame. They brought up stuff that you talked about, including being in a certain place she shouldn't have. But that never proceeded into your claims of people dismissing the rapist with "she was asking for it." 2. True. More then likely I got a lot of downvotes because I had a lot of bad posts when I was 12. Which looking back at them now I can't see how I thought they'd be right. 3. It's part of the equation because the lawyers are trying to come up with a defense. Whether you think they shouldn't be entitled to a defense or not, ultimately the defense is not going to be pretty. When it come's to rape charges, it's almost always going to come down to the defense trying to prove the accuser is a liar. Because it's almost alway's his word vs her word. 4. She took part in the trial. My bad, she was in court. 5. I did not say it was her fault. You have to realize just because I don't take your position on the matter and it doesn't exactly line up with yours, does not mean I'm clearly a sexist bigot trying to blame the poor girl for what happened. As soon as someone says something contrary to your position you begin a campaign to paint them as a sexist, a racist, or a bigot of some sort. It's not a discussion if the minute I say something contrary, you drag it back to the same point over and over and over and over and over and repeatedly make me say I'm not blaming her. Everything I say gets's caught in this massive glove of yours and is immediately labeled "Sexist argument blaming the girl." It is hard to discuss anything when everything you say is just brought back to a single point. He is repeatedly going back to the claim that I am victim shaming rape victims. He acts as though I have absolutely no experience with rape victims, and that I'm a sexist bigot. I know 3 girls personally who were raped. More if you count it as I only know their name and where they live. He has labeled me in his mind as a sexist and it pisses me off. When I found out these girls were raped it hurt just as much as it would everyone else. He has the nerve to suggest I don't care about them, I didn't care about them, and that I dismissed them, and he has a level of arrogance that is ignorant to everyone else's experiences except his own.

How many people do you know personally who were raped? 1.My low upvote count is due to me being a conservative. The other participants(Ten_Oz, Swans, Charyon, Phi, Outrider) are capable of thinking too. They just didn't reach the same conclusion we did. 2. I'd say there was more tragedy on the girls part. Firstly, the boy's used a knife, which is usually a pretty big red flag for the boy's my age. Additionally, I know good and well that raping someone is bad. Period. Granted, this is because it has been ingrained into my head by my "sexist bigoted evil Christian church" that rape is horrible and there is no excuse for men who do it, but I feel like most boy's have the general idea too. Rape = bad. 3. 14 year's old and drinking is bad, either way. However, poor life choices still don't lead to the right to blame someone for what others did to her. Ultimately, it was a bad situation. Although the risk factor of being raped was definitely higher. Ultimately, because whether her friends had permission to be there or not wasn't part of the equation. Whether the boy's had permission to be there or not wasn't part of the equation. It was why was she there, that is part of the equation. Her friends were not the ones on trial. The boy's and she were on trial. You're immediately taking these questions as an attack on all women or something. Ultimately, it's what any normal person thinks. What the hell were the parent's doing letting a 14-year-old girl go to a party with alcohol and no adult supervision? It is not her fault she got raped, but she was definitely in a bad situation would you not agree? The boy's raped her and that was terrible. It was entirely their fault. But she was in a bad situation to begin with, and I'd like to point out her parent's did not do a good job keeping her out of it.

What experiment do you propose?

Toxic masculinity?

Possibly.

The Ottoman's beheaded hundreds of people too. Their empire ended in 1922. So in 3922, we'll know if it works for Ottoman's too.

Ah, alright. It just seems that in my valley, more and more people dislike Trump. In fact, my pastor even talked about voting for independents rather than Republicans.

Yeah, but those same polls have George Bush at 88%. I mean, maybe I'm wrong but I thought a lot of people disliked George Bush?

Proof? Links?

Any relevant discussion?

Alright. You may have your name calling session so you can get all your rage out.

Does the President of the United States, Congress, and the Senate, not count as the leadership of the United States? If not, who does? Once again, I believe complaints lacking in facts, nor relevant to the discussion, are better suited for the thread "How does Trump annoy you?"

Science is based on evidence, not opinions. Please provide evidence that the leadership in our country is brain dead since you insist on it being scientific. As such, I have conflicting evidence including videos of the President of the United States walking around and talking, leading me to believe he is not brain dead. Additionally, several members of Congress have also recently been seen participating in activities ranging from talking, walking, breathing, driving, and, intelligent political debate.

If you cut off a man's head, and bury his body without his head, within 2000 years he will be dead. Evidence provided by beheadings during the rule of Rome.
