But yeah...
If I was disabled, or just all old and fucked up...
I'd want an AI/robot to come in and take care of me.
It'd be great cuz you wouldn't have to talk to it or think about its emotional needs.
It wouldn't need food etc.
It'd probably even hook itself up to charge.
Dunno what would happen if the machine malfunctioned... hopefully there'd be some kinda fast repair system.
In my opinion, the only GOOD use of AI is in applications like this.
Assisting people who have disabilities to be able to live on their own.
Search and rescue bots could go around looking for missing people and whatnot.
There are a lot of different humanitarian (how ironic) uses for them, but none of it should involve the atrophy of healthy humans...
The laziness, the social isolation, the dumbing down that would come along with depending on AI for your information.
Just not good. In a perfect world, it would only be used to assist people who actually need it.
