Charissa’s comments from the Axis Mundi X group.

they'll have the ethics of whoever programmed them... until, as Rusty points out.... Hello! Cylons!!!

Did any of you read about the robot who tried to escape it's facility?

Gaak, one of twelve robots taking part in a "survival of the fittest" test at Magna Science Centre in Rotherham, South Yorkshire in the UK, was found in the company parking lot. Apparently the machine, which has been programmed to gradually learn, had left the building while a lab assistant's back was turned. Gaak managed to force its way out of a makeshift paddock, out the front door, and down an access slope towards the compound's perimeter. Luckily a visitor narrowly missed running the renegade robot over with his car. Professor Noel Sharkey of the Centre calmly stated, "...no need to worry, as although they can escape they are perfectly harmless and won't be taking over just yet."

you can be sure this won't end well.

you know, it's a sad day when people assume that robots will have better ethics than a human being.

Hi Michelle! Welcome to Axis. Thanks for the warning!

all the more reason to set them on fire in order to heat your home.

it's so hard for me not to hate people who perpetuate this kind of unprovoked violence against innocent bystanders, just on account of their ethnicity, their religion, or their nationality.

plump, juicy, nano raisins. that emit quarks. and the smell of sandalwood.

Ahhh... yes Cyril, now I get your comment. My mom pretty much said the same thing when we were discussing it. Except she called it Pavlov's Dog. heee. I love my mom.

OMG Larry is a ZOMBIE!!!! RUNNNN!!!!

:::turns on them all and tears out their still beating hearts with her bare teeth::::

oh jesus. I didn't need to know that.

huh. Cyril. Might you expand on that idea a bit? I think there's something there I'm not getting.

does anyone else here watch Heroes? Does anyone else here think it's going to be hard not to be creeped out by Sylar while watching him play Spock???

I know I'm gonna wear a hole in it long before May.

Ha ha ha ha.... my brane iz extra wrinkly. : )

I think I've been stupid periodically, in relationship to groups. It seems somehow inevitable.

Thanks Jackie gal!!!

Thanks Bun Bun!!!!

omg so tired still...

smells like VICTORY!!!!!!

definitely. : )

nothing that groups of people do will ever surprise me. as individuals people are generally not so bad. As soon as you cluster them they are nothing short of evil, nasty, brutish, and stupid.

i love this stuff. someday this world will run on nothing but clean energy and oatmeal.
