[QUOTE="ViaCrucis, post: 76311681, member: 293637"] My first reaction, like most others, was that of course robots can't be priests. But at that point I was thinking robots, not true AI. True AI raises a lot of questions, questions that I don't think we have answers for right now. Questions that are going to need to be raised, and raised often. When I say "True AI", I mean more than just "intelligence", but genuine sapience--[I]personhood[/I]. If true, real, artificial life were to exist, I don't think I would be in any position to deny its personhood. And, therefore, its [I]soul[/I]. But I also think that making real, genuine, artificial intelligence is a genuinely bad idea. I've seen [I]The Matrix[/I]. In other words, I would prefer that we not find ourselves in a position where these questions need to have real world applicable answers in the first place. But these are still valuable questions to ask. -CryptoLutheran [/QUOTE]
