Machinism

Print E-mail
Machinism (a word composed out of the word 'machine' and 'organism') are, untill now, hypothetical intelligent beings in a machine body. Some claim that the first true machinisms will be brought to life by the year 2055. They consist entirely out of technological parts and will initially make use of intelligence software developed by humans.

Machinisms come forth out of the evolution of humans.

When the first machinisms obtain an itelligence that is comparable with that of humans they will nessicarily grow smarter then us, because they are able to share knowledge much faster then humans can. Humans need to lear using a slow proces in the brain by making complex paterns of interconnectivity between neurons. There is no effective and fast way download knowledge from the brain. The ability to instantly download knowledge will enable machinisms to instantly share their knowledge with other machinisms. Finally machinisms will manage all knowledge of humans + their own knowledge per machinism wich may cause an exponential growth of their intelligence from the so called technological singularity.

In graduate school (1993), I designed a rational computer combining binary and digital logic using fuzzy logic and neural networks. 
 
Fuzzy logic allows any range of value to be used. Say for example, teaching the computer human values and characteristics just like Hal in 2001.  
 
So theoretically, I concur that machinism is a distinctly and highly probably. I refuse to this date to build a rational computer; while admitting a network of rational computers that can learn and have human characteristics like values and character traits will be built someday. 
 
Sometimes, just because we can build a rational computer does not mean we should. That is all I have to say on the matter.
