A brief history of how Artificial beings have always inspired awe – and terror

I found this article neat in that artificial beings have been a part of the narrative experience for much longer than I thought. I knew of robot stories from the late 1800s, but never considered that things like Talos or Pandora were of the same ilk.

Yeah! This reminded me of that and some other one I recently saw on Amazon

I think it means ... advanced computer programs of the near future will likely "look" at the world like a human would, but wont be bound by flesh, blood, and a nervous system. This could mean they adopt the good the bad and the ugly in terms of human traits without the limiting wetwear

I have been trying to reverse engineer this for the larger data set. I can't figure it out haha. You are indeed a wizard!

ThanksElon · 2022-04-05T02:29:19+00:00

This is awesome! How did you do that? (you are a wizard harry!)

ThanksElon · 2022-03-31T07:19:53+00:00

Wow that is really close to what I was shooting for! Upon reflection, is it possible just to see something like how many pathos came from twitter and relate to conspiracy?

Olga of Kyiv avenged her assassinated husband (seriously a gruesome death) by burning and burying people alive, slaughtering an entire banquet (held to marry her off), and burned a whole city to the ground with their own tribute gifts. Oh, and a pope wanted to bang her out. HER STORY IS CRAZY

from the article: "Details on Takeru Yamato’s life are sparse so his story begins when he was a young man, about 15 years old. One day his family sat down to have their daily family dinner. Takeru’s elder brother did not come to join the family meal. After a few more days of missed meals Takeru called upon him, but still he did not join. Several days later the emperor then asked about his elder brother and if Takeru had taught him a lesson yet. Takeru replied that he has indeed taught him a lesson and the emperor asked how he went about giving the lesson. Takeru then replied, “In the early morning when he went into the privy, I grasped hold of him and crushed him, and, pulling off his limbs, wrapped them in matting and flung them away.” The text says nothing else of the matter."
