While he does cite many alternate views, he makes it clear  that AI is a topic worth discussing.      <\/p>\n<p>      Crashcourses Hank poses an excellent question at the start      of his video. What if your closest friends are a set of      extremely advanced robots? How would you know? Hank      introduces the       Turing Test, an assessment to determine the strength of      an artificial      intelligence (AI)program. If youspoke      toa robot and wereunable to discern a difference      between it and a human, then the AI capabilities of its      programming would be exceptional.    <\/p>\n<p>      Hank also spotlights opposing viewpoints which point out that      while AImay be able to fool us into believing it is      human, it may never truly encapsulate human thought, because      humans themselves have yet to fully understand consciousness.    <\/p>\n<p>      What do you think? If it talks like a human, walks like a      human, behaves like a human, and feels like a humanis it      human? Do differences in biology matter when the concepts of      the mind are the same? Many question       whether AI will need rights, and       what those rights will look like. It is a question we      must turn our attention to.    <\/p>\n<p><!-- Auto Generated --><\/p>\n<p>Read the original here: <\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/futurism.com\/should-make-ai-kill-switch-give-robots-rights\/\" title=\"Should We Make An AI Kill Switch or Give Robots Rights? - Futurism\">Should We Make An AI Kill Switch or Give Robots Rights? - Futurism<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> In Brief Hank from CrashCourse explains in a YouTube video that our perception of humanity might differ in light of the upcoming age of AI.
