Right …
I’m going to be looking like a pillock for a few more days …
Remember, yesterday, that I told you my glasses had broken?
Well …
The optician I got them from is happy tho fix the arm: but won’t be able to do so until Friday at the earliest.
Which is when they expect the delivery …
Like I say …

Have you been watching the news?
Then you’ve possibly seen the news that some of Facebook’s AI researchers turned off a pair of experimental chatbots.
When the things started talking … in their own dialect of English.
Apparently, people are getting worried about it: especially in the media.
Personally?
I’m one of many that still remembers reading I, Robot: and reading Asimoz’s Three Laws of Robotics.
- A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
- A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
- A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Laws.
He basically wrote those … ?
Because he was very aware we’re human: we like building stuff with safety features.
Including the off-button the researchers used … !

Have some faux Kraftwerk …
