I bought a Roomba this week. I (naturally) named it Oppy, after the Opportunity Mars rover.
I may or may not have spent half an hour watching little Oppy map out my apartment, bumping into chairs and tables and my understandably pissed off dog. Oppy then vacuumed my place, and went back to his home dock to rest.
Oppy is good. Oppy is friend.
With AI tech making leaps and bounds over the past few years, it isn’t crazy to think that robots will come close to sentience in our lifetime — or at least something that pretty convincingly passes for it.
