A Brave New World

[Omni]

This discussion roused many thoughts in my head. None lustful towards robots, but definitely about the panorama of the possible future.

If you are lonely, could you seek companionship with a non human?

In a few decades, bots will be able to post here on MLW so i guess the answer is yes, eventually.

Last night, an author has wrote a book called  "The New World Children" and it about how tech. has taken over and the kids of  now and future, their brains are not being used and the dangers of a lazy brain and he does have a point. Thoughts?

I did hear the other day that a large east coast school (I Think it was MIT) shut down their facebook, snapchat, etc. and stopped spending all day staring into their Iphones etc.. Within 1 week the students claimed their stress levels receded noticeably, and within 2, their grades improved. But I am still (warily) intrigued about the future of robots and intimacy.
