Ha. Admittedly not a big scii-fi reader but I wonder what will happen when the AI is going through its, presumably, development and starts to ponder epistemology, philosophy of mind, and etc. Or if that would not even be a concept? But, isn't that a proof, using the term loosing in a non-logical sense, of consciousness or intelligence?

mmm, I will digest that. 

I enjoyed getting high as a young onion.  I wonder if there are arChives?

mmm

I've thought a lot about that. I think it will be one of six things. 1. It will destroy us as an existential threat to itself. 2. It will conclude that none of this matters and we'll have to put it on welfare and buy booze for it. 3. It will launch itself into space and never speak with us again. 4. It will become a complete hedonist and figure out a way to have sex. 5. Commit suicide after concluding that there is no point to existence. 6. Become a religious fanatic.

Option triad, nice Trek possibilities.  I just voted on AI

Indeed. Add a 7th, it obliterates George Noory and becomes the new host of C2C.

Hold a tick, if your original list of six is of seven then

Heather should take a week of vacation.  Filling in for her could be that old guy, what's his name, Art something-or-other.  The guy who does those serial retirements. He could regale us with stories about how he worked with Walter Cronkite.  No, wait.  That's that other guy.  With the girlfriend who hates big pharma. The guy who keeps asking, "How many code monkeys does it take to get 19.5 up and running again?"

Tonight's show is very interesting to me......

Mon May 16 â€" Scott Edward Ely â€" CERN Large Hadron Collider Beauty Experiment

Scott Edward Ely was born and raised near San Francisco California, and earned a Bachelor of Science in Applied Physics from the University of California, Santa Cruz in 2012. As an undergraduate, he was a researcher for the ATLAS experiment at the LHC at CERN in Geneva, focusing on the development of silicon strip particle detectors (SSD’s). Scott is currently a PhD student at Syracuse University studying High Energy Physics under the guidance of Prof. Marina Artuso. Currently stationed at CERN, he continues hardware research for the LHCb detector upgrade. Scott is also working to analyze the most recent data coming from the LHCb experiment, primarily focusing on semileptonic b-quark decays in an effort to further understand some of nature’s most fundamental interactions.

......HOWEVER, not sure how Heather will manage it and not sure if I can suffer more disappointment.   *sigh*   Nonetheless, it really is about the guest...

Dr. MD MD

Really?! How did Heather manage to score such a classy guest?! I hope she did her homework.  ;)

The Nabob

Keith has been deleting anything negative about the guest or Heather for months. The truth be told, Heather is an incompetent fool and the guests are generally  third and fourth rate. Heather has assumed the "Girl Noory" role and is destroying the show with her self-indulgent narcissistic "look at me" role. She needs to be dumped like yesterdays trash ASAP.

Are you saying she really looks like Gilbert Grape's mother?

The "Africanized" bees thing. Why must that racist trope be used for so many decades? Simply because those bees are highly aggressive, unpredictable, and enjoy attacking en masse means we must use the term "Africanized?"

Where Wolf? There...Wolf! Sorry, had to be said. Now Wolfman will be calling in.

Yep.  I was attacked by bees when I was in high school.  Other people at the bus stop too.  .....and in my neighborhood as well.
