The sunset happens without intelligence or emotion at all and there's no doubt that it could cause emotions to somebody watching the sunset. >> On Sat, 4 Jun 2016 22:16:53 -0700, Erik Steffl wrote: >emotions only come up in systems that are complex enough (that >doesn't mean that all complex systems would have emotions, just that >the current AI is too simple to have emotions and that complex enough >AI *might* eventually have emotions). Emotions are required, they fulfil a "function" of life. they are the cause to protect ourself, to be kindhearted, human etc., nothing like that is required for a machine to exist.
