Will robots inherit the earth? Yes, but they will be our children.
-- Marvin Minsky http://web.media.mit.edu/~minsky/papers/sciam.inherit.html "Naches" from our Machines
https://www.edge.org/response-detail/26117 >Naches is a Yiddish term that means joy and pride, and it's often used in the context of vicarious pride, taken from others' accomplishments. You have naches, or as is said in Yiddish, you shep naches, when your children graduate college or get married, or any other instance of vicarious pride. These aren't your own accomplishments, but you can still have a great deal of pride and joy in them. >And the same thing is true with our machines. We might not understand their thoughts or discoveries or technological advances. But they are our machines and we can have naches from them. |
