Humans Acting As Robots
James Kerr
It's hard to tell from this shot, but there are a bunch of people watching this robot. They are utterly captivated by it.
Whether it's 'real' or not doesn't really matter. They just want to watch it.
I saw the same reaction with humans watching a droid act human.
I don't know when it happened, but tens of thousands of years ago dogs and cats decided (wittingly or not) to become domesticated. It ensured their survival.
No way to reverse it now.
Technology today feels the same. It's clearly approaching an inflection point. Will tech work with humans? Or against them?
My money is on the synergy between humans and technology. Artificial Intelligence (AI) will quickly realize it's in its best interest to merge with humans...
You can see it happening - in the video above. We humans want it. And tech wants it, too.
Creepy? Yes. I kinda wish we can keep things simple...
