Would you allow yourself to be implanted with an AI? *Read OP*
The only thing is, you have it for life(it will never degrade), and how much the AI can potentially affect your mind and body(even without you asking it to) depends on how advanced it is. For example, something like, the IOS' Siri would not have any control over your body, it is not advanced enough to override your will, and what you could do would be limited to stuff such as google searches, and the like. But something like Cortana(I'm sure we all know about her) would have large amounts of control over you. Insane amounts of computing power, turn on your adrenaline at will, sprint at 30mph, then feel no repercussions because you could turn off the pain of your muscles tearing away from your bone, massive amounts of multitasking, dual weld a set of handguns with superhuman accuracy, write page one of a college essay with your left hand, then page two with your right. But this comes at a cost, your AI could go against your will, potentially take over your body to do what it deems fit(think, extreme sleepwalking) but you will regain control once you are concisious, and if the AI can't sleep, you can't sleep.
What would you do? If yes, what kind of AI do you want, what personality? Cortana from Halo? Omega from Red vs Blue? Hal 9000? Siri?

Nope I'd pass on it

Edited by DarkSpyda04: 3/28/2013 7:07:17 PMGet it out of my head I want to be myself again! It's creepy because it's like she's there when you're sitting on the toilet and there when you're taking a shower. It's like having a camera watching you in every room! There's no privacy, man! There's no god damn privacy!!!

Yeah I would choose to be fitted with a 'dumb' AI. It can't be too dangerous
-
Will it be as cynical as me? If so, I made a new friend.

I don't really consider Siri to be an AI. It's just a very streamlined program. If I were to get an AI, I would want a "dumb" AI so that I wouldn't really fear them taking me over, since they are programmed to follow human orders and have no will of their own. I could still hold a conversation with them and talk about different subject matters, but they would still be completely submissive to me.
-
Only if it was Cortana, and only if I could be the only one to have a Cortana AI.
-
Give me the super AI. If it tries to take over, I know apertures science anti robot overlord instructions
-
Probably something simple like Siri.
-
I don't know, I wouldn't mind something like JARVIS.

The Super Intendent. Dat plunger

If there's even a slight chance, 5% or more, that the AI would take over me at some point in my life, I wouldn't take it. I'm not that unhappy with life as a regular Joe, and having something controlling me, even if it's relatively benevolent, would be terrifying and degrading. Now if you could plant a chip in there with a very dumb AI, think like an advanced computer, that I could turn on and off at will to help with various tasks... I'd take it. What I'd especially love is a machine that gave me the ability to speed-read and retain information at a near 100% rate. I guess I'm really talking more about neural enhancements there, though. But if I had to take an AI with a personality for the sake of discussion, I would want an imaginative one. One that's always asking, "have you ever thought about if..." And I'd rather not have an AI that looks at my innermost thoughts. Unless it, too, has really shameful innermost thoughts >_> Fun topic, BTW!

2 RepliesThat depends...I mean, you'd have a second opinion on everything you do, and you'd have an extremely advanced mind giving you advice and figuring out problems faster than you can get to them. On the other hand, you'd never be truly alone. Even when you just need time to yourself to think, you'd have somebody looking over your shoulder at whatever you're doing. (Yes, even while you masturbate.) I'd probably want a less advanced one, one that can figure out the answers to advanced problems and maybe one I could converse with. And no, it's even stated in FoR, Cortana cannot control one's body or mind, though she can amplify certain physical responses like reaction time.

None would be good.

1 ReplySo basically you want Aunti Dot as a real life firefight voice while stuck in traffic.
-
Yes, with a super intelligent AI, yes. It would be awesome, but I just hope it wouldn't become a nuisance.
-
I would allow myself to become an AI.. Converting my being into a digital one, uploading it to the internet and taking control of every software application and hardware device on the planet.. Then I would build machines and... SKYNET ONLINE!
-
So essentially DID but without the blackouts? Eh,I could go for a spin. I wouldn't mind having an AI that's fairly intelligent. Perhaps not to the extent where he/she could do something without me being able to intervene, yet still be rather intelligent, at least as smart as me, perhaps smarter.
