Each week we pair a comedian with a scientist, to break down the scientifically inaccurate elements of popular movies and TV shows. Warning: There will be spoilers!
The whole point in the original Blade Runner was at some point, are the replicants just as human or more human than humans are? That's the famous line that comes out of there - more human than human.
Associate Professor of Psychology and Neuroscience at the Neuroscience Institute at Carnegie Mellon University, Tim Verstynen said, "At some point, if you're artificially created through some slip and slide tube that Jared Leto has, that you just kind of come out of, but every other aspect of you has feelings, and memories, and emotions, and can feel pain and can cry and can bond and you could do all of that stuff, well, then, you have all the aspects of being a human. Does that mean that just because of what method you were born defines us as human? Or is it based off of your behavior?"
These are, in a lot of ways, in the field of artificial intelligence what people talk about a lot. A lot of people write and talk a lot about this, even though it's kind of far off into the future, but, at some point, there should be rights for artificial entities, if we're going to make them have artificial consciousness. We're going to make them have synthetic emotions. Just because we built it doesn't mean that it doesn't have these things.
