Our friend B at MoA says AI is just another term for pattern recognition. So isn't the Russian Perimiter system - where computers use pattern recognition to detect a decapitating nuclear strike against Moscow, and launch all Russia's nukes in return - a form of AI?

I said as much in my April article when I used the movie "War Games" as one of my examples. Also, there're mixed ideas about AI's exact definition ought to be. Some say it's independent of human control while others argue it isn't. IMO, the writers for Star Trek: Next Generation and Asimov before them did a good job of showing AI capable of independent thought unless restricted in some manner as with Asimov's Three Laws. Yet even that being bypassed was explored in the film "I Robot." Unfortunately, too many billions have never read Asimov's works on the topic, which IMO constrains human opinion and discussion/curiosity. The prequel series Asimov wrote to his Foundation Series also deals with the affects of robotics on human societies in which he poses most of the fundamentally important questions that human society ought to have began discussing during the 1980s/90s. And thus my point that humanity requires a wide-ranging open discussion on the issue before AI advances much further in its capabilities.
