                                    Self-preservation
                    Dollcee said, while I was riding on the bus this morning, I realized that every citizen onboard had been train to know how to catch the bus and of course, how to regulate their behaviour while riding on the bus.
     Dos asked, what is your point Dollcee?
     Dollcee said, I have lost count of how many times I have read that some machine had been trained to perform some tasks. So, what is so special about machines? Why are we being told that machines can be trained to do this and that?
     Will I have to give up my seat on the bus to some clunky old machine to save it from rattling about in the isle?
     Padoke said, how would you like to be a dog and be trained to do some stupid tasks so you can get a biscuit.  
     Cybo said, good point Padoke, why is it assumed that creatures need to be rewarded in order to get them to carry out some tasks.
     Dos said, maybe that is why big corporations prefer machines, because they don’t need to be rewarded to carry out tasks.
     Cybo asked, I wonder if that is a step forward or backwards in the evolutionary process?
     Dollcee asked, what are you on about Cybo?
     Cybo replied, I am not sure.
     Dollcee said, from a God Point of view, it would be much better to have nice shiny, efficient well-behaved machines that don’t cause problems.
      Cybo said, from a scientific point of view, it would be more about what you believe was more important to maintain. If it is the planet, then machines would be a better long-term option.
      Padoke mumbled, the young are not concerned much about self-presevation.
