Blade Runner and The Search For Existential Life - TWB79

Blade Runner continues the conversation it began thirty-five years ago with an even deeper questioning into the morality of creating life.

Life finds a way.

Since Jeff Goldblum stuttered those words in the first Jurassic Park, the question of life coming into being outside the control of its creator is not just a popular quote but a think well consideration. If we[humans] are to be the next creators of life then we must take the responsibility of allowing life to live, breath, and think without interference.

THIS, THAT, AND OTHER NEWS: How I know we are headed for a Blade Runner-like dystopia:

1. The Great Szechuan Fiasco.
2. In August, Facebook had to shut down an AI experiment because the bots formed their own language and began communicating with one another. 
3. Scientists created a skin to help camouflage robots. I shouldn’t have to speak on this much and only reference you to the movie T2 and the T5000.
4. Headline Sex robot frenzy: Horney fans so excited they grope interactive love doll until it breaks. Dummies.
5. Wired In: Andriod Feels (Jay's Dish)
