Kount Kreepy had sent me a trailer for K3LOID a short film by the team at it BLR.
The short by itself is interesting enough but there is alot more to it than just cool eye candy.
Now the premise behind it is something called the AI-Box Experiment as put forward by Eliezer S. Yudkowsky.
In short if humanity were to create A.I. then it should be kept in a box with no hard wired or WIFI connections to internet, manufacturing etc in order to monitor it. The argument being that the A.I would eventually convince someone to “let it out”. A really interesting prospect and even neater film short that raises a pile of questions and hits that cyberpunk button and reminiscent of Masumune Shirow’s work on Appleseed and Ghost in the Shell.
Were looking forward to anything else coming from the BLR team!
