Will Mankind Destroy Itself?

I believe so.

The "singularity" will happen first. A singularity is a term Ray Kurzweil borrowed from physics to describe the point in time where Artificial Intelligence becomes smarter than Humans. Apparently we're not too far away from that.

Once he said he's going to bring back his father, he lost all credit with me. Resident Evil 2050. Haha

....unless it's programmed to acquire knowledge by itself?

It could only acquire knowledge that it's told to so how can it be told to acquire knowledge that humans don't know? LOL

Lol sweet! Where you go to college at? NYU? COol that he takes the time to teach us mere mortals. . . .

Does he get raided with comments and jokes about his appearances on tv, and what have you?

No i go to City College and he teaches just one class there

And no, he's very respected so students arent like that around him. Plus he isnt as exciting in lecture as he is on TV

That's cool. . .

Well of course, just didn't know if he was humorous, or jovial like that . . . Not "heckling", just joking around. . . . Some of those uber smart scientist types have a very good sense of humor.
