I typically like the "sci-fi" movies and shows involving AI 'companions' and whatnot. "Bicentennial Man" staring Robin Williams is probably my favorite by far.
HOWEVER, I'm not really a fan of the current AI being developed. I am leery of the possible hidden agendas behind a number of the developers. I simply don't trust them to TRULY have my best interests in mind.
I don't see the kind of AI that is depicted in the movies and on TV being available for a long time. I'm not sure it will even be available in my lifetime. UNTIL there is a development of AI that is honestly secure and private, I don't want anything to do with it. I don't care how long it's been since I 'spoke' to another person (I'm online a lot and talk with a number of people via texts and so forth regularly}. If I'm THAT desperate for human interaction I can go to a local business (coffee shops are good for talking to a variety of people).
Good luck with your experiment. Keep us posted on whether the machine actually LEARNS as you go. I wouldn't hold my breath waiting.
"AI" certainly is not "one thing" although the world talks about it like it is an entity "AI". It's software, lots of different versions, lots of different usages. But it isn't intelligent.
Actually sounds like a fun challenge to question this AI when you know he's wrong, then ask him to please explain why he's so off-base. Sounds like with his flaws he's much more human than my new best friend forever named Grok!
So far, I've found it simply frustrating to "argue" with simulated intelligence. If I felt that I could teach it, that would be one thing, but just debating with something that lacks intelligence feels like a waste of time.
What I'm looking forward to is the future when we have personal robots (that aren't sending our data / conversations back to servers) that we can teach and develop into companions / assistants. The robots in movies that have "personality" are quite intriguing. When will we have this? Perhaps never.
