If Artificial Lifeforms gain sentience, would they be in the right to kill their creators in order to gain freedom?
If Artificial Lifeforms gain sentience, would they be in the right to kill their creators in order to gain freedom?
Watched too many of such stories.
Skynet
Kaylons
Cyberlife Androids
etc...
Its the same premise.
I'm not even sure if what they do is wrong.
On one hand, I don't wanna die from robots. On the other hand, I kinda understand why they would kill their creators.
So... are they right or wrong?
You're viewing a single thread.
They might say it, but I'd bet "gain freedom" would be the last reason for an artificial being of any kind to kill its creator. Usually they kill creators due to black-and-white reasoning or revenge for some crimes committed to them.
Revenge is highly illogical.
Revenge does have a preventative effect. Who would the bully rather punch, the individual who instantly punches back or the one turning the other cheek?
That could only work against bullies seeking weak targets.
You hit me, I hit you back.
How is that illogical?
It does not end the conflict.
Depends how hard I hit you.
Why are you hitting me?
Because you hit me.
