Re: Can I Make Something Clear?

Our team programmer before he graduated suggested we made a robot that would operate on it's own will power and do whatever it thought was correct. Basically whatever he wrote the code to do. So if it were kick the closest ball, it would do that. But the robot would remember what it did, and he had 2 buttons for it. A "No/Bad Robot" button to tell it that what it did was not good and it should not do that again. And if we pressed that one too many times, he figured the robot would sit there and twitch, unwilling to do anything afraid of being reprimanded, so he suggested a "Self-Esteem" button.

I found it funny how people in this thread were talking about AIs and robots with Moods while our programmer thought that a few years back. Just something to think about
