From what a standard definition of any AI textbook tells us a robot (or any machine) is mostly "a binary system" (or at least was till not so long ago) that is a very sophisticated bit of equipment that 'thinks' in "0111001.....". What if that is how we think? Of cause, you would argue that binary systems can't learn and their "thinking abilities" are the result of the original input. The studies of cognitive phonology, however, have proven to me that the rules of human speech and pronunciation can be (and are already) reduced into computer language with a hierarchic structure (e.g. with the help of original input a device can generate rules..!). The point is - we might be robots after all ^_^. P.S Is it true that a mountain in Hunan was renamed after Avatar's Hallelujah Mountain? Official ceremony and all that??
