>I'm seriously asking

I'm not sure I believe that. Is human-like intelligence not valuable to you?

Frankly, no. I much prefer interacting with humans than with machines, and I emphasize interacting. A machine does what you tell it - it will not enlighten you, will not surprise you, will not create new knowledge.

Sure it will.

In the game of go, the machine routinely enlightens and surprises all the top players. It creates new knowledge in the form of inventing new joseki which turn out to be better than the established ones.

I'd like to spend more time doing that and less time writing the more basic parts of code.

For me "human" is the key part tho...

tasuki|2 years ago

Why?

Intelligence is good for problem solving. You have a problem you need solved. Do you prefer a human do it rather than a machine? Why?

Why? I would think the key part is what it can do, not what hardware it runs on.

If you just haven't yet found how you can make use of the current stuff, keep in mind this discussion is always extrapolating what happens if the technology gets much better.
