.]] or "think tanks" form the Anime Ghost In The Shell ]] OVERTHROWING POWERS In , and The Matrix . A notable exception is Mike in suggests that the HAL 9000 found himself/itself in a similar position of divided loyalties. On one hand, HAL needed to take care of the astronauts, on the other the humans who created HAL entrusted him with a secret to be withheld from the astronauts. In works such as the Japanese Manga '' Ghost In The Shell '', the existence of intelligent machines questions the definition of life as organisms rather than a broader category of autonomous entities, establishing a notional concept of systemic intelligence. AI CONTROLLED HUMAN SOCIETY Golem XIV is an example of highly advanced supercomputer in Stanisław Lem 's science-fiction novel ''Golem XIV''. Golem XIV was a military artificial intelligence computer, which was originally invented to lead wars and to win them. Golem stops cooperating with humans on military level, because he considered wars and violence as illogical. His self-developing artificial intelligence refused to execute his primary task. Machine becomes a philosopher greater than any other born on Earth. Golem's intelligence advanced to a lot higher level than human intelligence which lead to conversation and information exchange problems. Authors Ian M. Banks and Neal Asher have created future worlds, where human society is ruled by benevolent Strong AI . In Banks' work, The Culture is a Galactic civilization composed of humans, intelligent robotic drones, and AI Minds of vastly superior intellect. Asher proposes a similar, if less ambitious, future society in his Polity . In each universe, the common feature is that human society voluntarily turned control over to the AIs. Culture Minds and Polity AIs are portrayed as efficient, unbiased and (usually)incorruptable. BANNED AI CIVILISATIONS Author Frank Herbert explored the idea of a time when mankind might ban Clever Machines entirely. His Dune Series makes mention of a rebellion called the Butlerian Jihad in which mankind defeats the smart machines of the future and then imposes a death penalty against any who would again create thinking machines. Often quoted from the fictional Orange Catholic Bible , "Thou shalt not make a machine in the likeness of a human mind." A similar idea is also explored in the re-imagined Battlestar Galactica , where artificial intelligence research is illegal after the Cylon s, a species of intelligent machines created by man, had rebelled against their masters and tried to destroy them. The character Dr. Gaius Baltar is known for his controversial view that the ban on research in this area is outmoded and should be lifted. HUMANOID SERVICE ROBOTS Service '', Marvin , KITT from Knight Rider , the Bicentennial Man , the ''Mechas'' in A.I. and Sonny in I, Robot . HUMANOID ENEMY ROBOTS Artificial intelligence plays a major role in '' How To Make A Monster '', where the fictional character Sol uses his sophisticated AI for the game's monster, which comes to life after the lightning strike. ROBOT RIGHTS Robot rights is the Human Rights corresponding to Robot s. The corresponding definition is therefore "the basic rights and freedoms to which all robots are entitled, often held to include the right to life and liberty, freedom of thought and expression, and equality before the law." The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language, Fourth Edition Legal rights of robots With the emergence of advanced robots, there is a greater need of legal rights as well as legal responsibilities for robots. Isaac Asimov developed the Three Laws Of Robotics , but there will probably be necessary with more specific and detailed laws than that The Legal Rights of Robots . Necessity The time where the rights of robots must be considered might not be very far away. Already in 2020, there might be a robot in every South Korean household, and very advenced robots besides. The Scientist - A Robot Code of Ethics By Glenn McGee Since science is only accelerating, robot rights is probably something that even many people today need to consider. However, even the most enthusiastic scientists admit that at least 50 years have to pass before any real artificial intelligence can be spoken about New World Technologies - NWT - Should we be worried by the rise of robots? . Until then, no real robot rights are probable to be of significance. SEE ALSO |
