ROBOTS ARE A CLEVER NOVELTY, BUT THEY WILL NEVER BE INTELLIGENT LIKE HUMANS.
WHAT WOULD BE AN EXAMPLE OF SOMETHING YOUR BRAIN CAN DO THAT A ROBOT CAN'T IMITATE?
WELL, FOR EXAMPLE. I CAN TELL WHEN A MOVIE IS GOOD IF THAT WERE INTELLIGENCE, ALL SMART PEOPLE WOULD LIKE THE SAME MOVIES.
WELL, I CAN ALSO READ HUMAN FACES TO KNOW WHAT PEOPLE ARE FEELING.
WHAT AM I FEELING RIGHT NOW?
I'M PICKING UP A MIXTURE OF ADMIRATION, AROUSAL AND THOUGHTS OF BACON.
DON'T GET COCKY, BUT YOU WON THIS ROUND.
