The first love story make me feel it’s a fake story and if it’s true, it would really scare me. I have played with Siri, a vocal APP which Apple claims that it can assist the user to do everything. But I feel this program is really limited if you try to make a conversation with it like a real human would do. The command from the user should be as simple as possible so that the response could be more accuate. But when the question refers to the emotional issues which are not logical, you will strongly feel that the machine is just programmed to respond you.
Computer, I think, no matter from the earliest DOS system or to the newest smartphone, it is positioned as a receiver. It receives the command from the sender(user), then collects data and do the calculation, then send the result back to the sender again. It is a passive system that always wait for the command from the user. Even if it can mimic a human’s behavior like the Ferebee doll does, it is programmed to react so under the certain signal that sensor received from the outside.
Computer cannot learn something, I think, that’s the biggest difference from a real human. Even include emotions, I think, all the human behaviors are learned from the outside(except some natural reactions like sucking). Because the computer do not know how to learn, it will not have emotions, therefore it will not have mind. The radio discussed “ is the simulated love a real love?” I think it is and it isn’t. because the love is only coming from one side—the human. The machine might know how to collect data when a human is having a emotional express, but it will never know what does those data mean.
There are many science fiction films that depict roberts rebel againse humans or discuss about if a robert has a mind, does it have a life. I do not deny that there is someday that the machine become able to learn. But I think our brain is far more complicated than their chips and smarter.
