The folks at the Cornell Creative Machines Lab are “interested in robots that create and are creative.” Here’s one such example of robots getting creative.

Then things get deeply philosophical, fairly quickly. It’s fun to watch it play out.

“Don’t you want to have body?”
Hmm. They are already thinking of taking over…

Very cool, I can’t wait until smart machines take over. I think we humans will find ways to extend our lives by adding intelligent robotic devices that take over our bodily functions when the organic components wear out. I would love to implant a memory component that I could instantly access the answer to any question.

I thought Unicorn was rather nice, but Cleverbot was a real bitch!
I love your comment! Yes indeed!
I am referring to Gene Dunford’s comment.
