- The child does not quite meet the standard "man", if we mean by "person" who formed his mind and acts in accordance with it. Child - the initial phase of "person", devoid of concepts and norms. Obviously, the content of the child's mind differs from the mind of an adult. But the shape of the body in children and adults alike. Doll girls does not replace a real child, but it is not for practice in education. The case is definitely not that. Rather, playing with dolls similar to education.
- What do you mean?
- Parenting is a quick method for adults to realize the ancient dream - to create an artificial Android, like myself being. This is just my opinion.
- But the kids... not dolls!
- Rene Descartes didn't distinguish between humans and machines, organic and inorganic world. When his beloved daughter died 5 years, he ordered a doll that looked just like her. He called her Francine and cared for as used to take care of her daughter. That's the story.
If our gods and our hopes - only scientific phenomena, then, and our love is nothing more than a scientific phenomenon. [Villiers de l'isle-Adam "eve future"]
- You're talking about changing my personality, but where is the guarantee that I will remain a?
- There are no guarantees, and why they are: everything in this world changes; wanting to remain the same, you're just limiting yourself.
A copy is just a copy, it may save from destruction some virus, but does not allow for variations the manifestation of personality. Life is based on diversity of species and thus has the opportunity to sacrifice some of them if necessary, so all living cells die off and built up again, but once death occurs and all the memory is erased, leaving only the genes transmitted to the offspring, that is the protective function of the system, strengthening themselves at the expense of diversity.
Device life much more complicated thanks to information abundance. Like any living creature using DNA as a memory system, the person receives individuality by accumulated memories. The phenomenon of memory is difficult to explain, or to drive at certain limits, but thanks to her a man remains a man. Computerization - the ability to operate in inconceivable numbers - raised the memory to a whole new level, resulting in unintended consequences.
- Nonsense! All this talk does not prove that you are a living thinking being.
- Can you prove me that you exist? How can you do it, if neither science nor philosophy can find no answer to the question - "what is life?"
- You know, cyborgs like me sometimes suffer from thought about their own origins. Sometimes I think that I'm that I am dead and that my brain is stuck in this body, or Vice versa - that I never existed and I completely artificial, as this shell.
Your titanium skull of a real brain, you are treated like a real person, so don't bother.
- So I'm saying, the only feeling that I have chelovesky brains, appears only due to the fact how to treat me, but who knows what is really inside us.
- The impression that you doubt in your Ghost.
What if a cyber brain can create its own Ghost, create a soul by itself, and if so - what's the difference, man you or the machine.
The human body and mind consist of countless components, that is why I am a unique individual with a unique personality: has a face and a voice, which I can distinguish from the others, but my thoughts and a memory unique to me, as well as a sense of their own destiny, and this is only a small part of the information that I collect and use in their own way. That is the total of all the thoughts there is a feeling of own self And I know that the I can expand.
As soon as the person realizes that the technology is available, it assimilates it. This innate desire. Look at us: we're the crown of creation. Managed metabolism, brain computerized, mechanized body... Not so long ago it was only science fiction. But will we be able to live without constant care? Although a slight tuning every quarter, the reasonable fee for all the benefits.
If we were all exactly the same, our actions would often predictable, but often the situation there are several outputs, and what is true for groups is true for the individual. All just excessive amplification of one of the parties entails the weakening of the other is tantamount to death.
