• Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

Google has a sentient AI

It's not possible for a machine to have feelings. Or a computer. Or any artificial thing.

Programmed feelings or responses like you mentioned, yes.

Idk.

I think our brain is just a computer in the end. I would not be surprised if consciousness could be replicated with a computer one day.

Artificial intelligence and neural networks are impressive in what they can do. Their ability to learn is real.

I guess i don't think its as cut and dry as you do.

If you think its weird that men can be women and vice versa, seems like we will soon be debating if computers should have rights. For example, what it you murdered someones tesla bot?
