Why not make an Ai that can look for a cure to his cancer?

A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Yeah that seems healthy
literally the plot of Caprica
Sadly, no one knows the plot of Caprica because we're the only two people in the world who watched it. It's impressive how well BSG was received and is remembered and most people don't even know Caprica exists.
it is a shame. i wished they were able to make another season but i guess just for the 2 of us it wouldnt have made much sense!
Transcendence and Black mirror both ended really well. Keep at it. T200's next.
Guy going full on pantheon .
Ugh the brain "scan" though. I think that's bs. At least in the show, not sure about the short story.

Black Mirror is not an instruction manual, people. Quite the opposite. Can we stop trying to make every episode real?
We’re not “trying to make every episode real”. Technology’s direction and human foibles are predictable. Black Mirror writers just aren’t blind and have a good sense of what’s coming down the pipeline.
That’s why it’s called Mirror. It’s about showing us who we are.
Sorry if that’s too horrifying for you, but this goes way beyond imitating the last person to mention these problems.
This was my first thought. How bout let’s not try to recreate the dystopian fictional TV show.
Maybe they were inspired Mulholland Drive instead.
If you don't want to do it then don't do it. Can we stop trying to tell everyone else they have to have the same values as you?
It made me think of this old Michael Keaton movie, "My Life", in which he leaves a treasure trove of video tapes to his unborn child.
