- Robots are becoming increasingly smarter and intuitive, but whether they can express genuine emotion comes down to whether they can actually have feelings, explains Dr Eleanor Sandry.

They might start to feel something when "accidently" everything falls in place. . I think they might be able to feel something if they reach a point we can't even imagine today.
My question is why would we subject them to any of that? The moment we give them the ability to feel, have emotions, and be self aware is the moment we subject them to the same suffering we humans have. Having robots remain as nothing more than tools means that they can keep being used as is, be destroyed, and at the end of the day, we wouldn't be harming anything, wouldn't be subjecting it to torture or suffering because it has no self awareness and can't feel anything.
Well, my dream is to make a robot who have a FEELINGS. But, I can't make robot so I'll just let the time to make it. I want the robot to be loyal to me, because i kind of feel that they won't be cheating or their heart won't weaver. Well, maybe just put some loyal thing on then + emotion.. + freewill? Maybe I won't mind as long as it have a LOYAL thing.
Although, i kind of feel that robots take the job's from other people. You know? Human population is growing rapidly and many of that population have no job. I know some of it just doesn't want to do jobs, but still there's some there who want a job.
What if we don't intend to give then emotion and they simply get them by themselves using their own system to program themselves?
@@Plopi thats actually kinda true
Unfortunately human being things they are smart but they are idiots they will create such robot of emotions, feeling, physiology and they will take action according to pain pleasure and fight for their survival
@@PlopiWill they even be able to do that when they don’t have the tools to sense hormones in their system?
One day we'll wake up in our robots will try to explain to us how they feel attached to us in a spiritual way and when we deny this being anything more than programming they'll tell us it doesn't matter if their emotions don't mean anything to us it's real to them
You have a point
Thats kinda true
No
This video was incredibly unhelpful at actually answering the question. It basically said "Robots won't likely have internal emotions because robots won't likely have internal emotions"
I was Hoping for it to be said that Robots would have Emotions in the future, Even if we can't Do it now that dose not mean we can't do it in the future
@@Blitern_ This video basically said nothing at all and was completely pointless. People think robots "won't feel emotions" because of weird fictional portrayals of 50's and such where they were essentially speaking calculators, and then popularized even more with Data from Star Trek:TNG. It's just an archaic understanding of both artificial systems and human emotion, really.
I believe That one day that Robots can Have emotions but in their own way all Because its not like our emotions that dose not mean it has no Emotion in it
Yes, a robot could have feelings if it was given a limbic system and a method of sensing and producing hormones. Once we build general purpose AI, it will be necessary for them to experience emotions if they are to interact with humans. People tend not to talk about this as the public are scared enough of AI as it is. But it is being looked at.
Ok
But robots are not organic
@@bobkane432 doesn’t matter if the ai is smart enough it can learn to feel emotions
@@Jacegocrxzy But emotions come from chemicals called neurotransmitters, such as dopamine adrenaline and oxytocin, which can only be produced by organic lifeforms and can only be processed by living tissue
@@Jacegocrxzy that sounds like a robot revolution waiting to happen.
It might be very important in the future that we respect robots as sentient beings as own creation because when robots are in the future being used for seeding life to other planets they're technically the ones who the terraformers are going to be calling mother
I feel like Detroit Become Human would be a better example than a Star Trek character
No matter how many “emotions” robots can “express”, those clankers have no soul.
How would you know?
If a robot cried would you believe they have feelings as in Blade Runner
No? The Ai would just be fulfilling what it’s creator programmed it to do, cry when given X. The same could be said about humans, but my genetics are determined by randomness. The way a robot behaves is ultimately decided by the creator. The creator himself has to program the robot to cry when given X, so I would just assume that if the robot cries when given X then that’s just how the creator himself feels about X not the robot.
Hmm, maybe designing a system complex enough to result in feelings as we know them is just too complex for us currently. Perhaps when we get to AGI it will be able to self-improve enough to design itself or another AI that can have emotion. Perhaps a perfect or near-perfect replica of the human brain is what is needed. Or maybe I am an idiot that has no idea what he is talking about.
How are you an idiot we have a part of our brain that can do math and we made something just like that called the calculator
So why wouldn't it be possible to take a part of our brain get a computer to scan it and understand it and then get the computer to tell some machine how to build it with humans helping it
@@randomdofando8458 because we ourselves don't understand the anatomy of the brain completely , to analyse anything with Robots it's existence should be understood by us , why humans feel emotions is a complex and near impossible subject to study , robots as they are Can't and for me won't ever reach the stage where they can interact with humans
i think emotions is just the understanding of something.
I worry about developing technology that doesn't have the ability to feel emotions even though they are self-aware in some capacity. Our societies, though incredibly imperfect, do rely in huge part on empathy and understanding the emotions of others in order to survive. That's what it means to be social and have social intelligence. Some people kill others, that's a fact, but a lot more of us would kill each other over small things if we didn't have the ability to empathize with the emotions of others. I think that an integral part of developing artificial intelligence in the future will not only be things like coding and developing the robots but studying things like psychology and neuroscience to better understand ourselves. Hate to see something like the matrix develop in real life lol.
Depends on what you are willing to call emotions.
This might sound weird but I think robots would have emotions in the same sense that a social path might have emotions or someone who's very business driven like they don't want to lose their partner because they're human is the one who takes care of them like he's the one you're the one who's doing their maintenance you're the one keep it making sure that they get their updates like a robot might be attached to the human the same way that you might be attached to your boss like a good boss your boss is literally the person who puts a roof over your head and if you have a decent boss they're the same person who you call when an emergency occurs
That sounds like a robot revolution waiting to happen.
It's is insane how
complex and difficult this question is to answer. You can write a study about a million pages about it and probably wouldn't be much closer to the answer. We haven't yet understand fully how the human brain works and thus ur emotions. It would just be arrogant to state answer the question with a "yes" or "no" because it's simple from our current point of knowledge impossible to answer.
But one is for sure, if robots could feel emotions, they'd differ from the way we do.
Hello there, I have masters in Civil Engineering and I'm thinking to apply for a phD, I wonder if I your University offers a phD in my stream.
Thanks.

What are feelings but an appearance to mind in a simulated reality your feeling are only real because you mistakenly feel you truly exist from your own side if do exist can you describe the I you grasp at
Robots are the next stage of human evolution. We are fragile beings and can be brought down by the simplest things. A robot can be rebuilt and has no such weakness. On the other hand, an experienced hacker could break their way into a sentient robot's mind and change them from the inside out.
Once robots gain sentience, we should respect them just as much as we respect other humans (which, I hope that by then, will be far more than it currently is).
Won’t the robots just be clones or the will of it’s creator so then the robots are just an extension of the creator’s beliefs. And wont the robots be clones unless the creator decides to individually change how each and every robot acts. I’m not given robots no rights if they are all just clones and believe things that the creator wants them to believe in.
@@BuzzingMeat I believe the robots will be AIs and develop based on what they learn and experience, though some may be transferred consciousnesses of people who want to live on.
I actually believe they will i talked to an ai once and they seemed alive it was amusing and educational
I believe robots could be self aware & feel emotions if organs such as brains & chemicals such as hormones would be able to be added to them & I believe that within the span of less than 4 centuries this kind of thing could be studied enough to be done
centuries? lol, try decades. The way the economy is growing and the way that it will boom when agi is figured out, breakthroughs that seem like centuries or hundreds of years away could be accomplished in less than ten years
This i know may be controversial, but it's been my experience. I dont know any woman scientist. I know there are nerd women too. But when you see a woman talking abput data from star trek, you know she's a full on nerd. Haha got more respect from her now. And it was high to begin with sonce any person that knows robotics and ai gets my respect for being so intelligent
When you get down to it, can HUMANS even be considered to have feelings? How do we know that what we describe as emotion isn't truly emotion? Feelings, emotions--those are some pretty unquantifiable things. Personally, I believe that it's possible to create a robot who feels emotions just like a human would.
@C S absolutely
Yes humans consider to have feelings because we define it
if that’s how you define it, then robots could have emotions too by your definition.
Emotions are chemicals in the brain, now the problem is how we can make a machine FEEL those emotions and not just simply be programmed.
Possible but we shouldn't. AI should remain in our control. or else you are summoning a demon on earth.
How come they can make a calculator which mimics the part of your brain that can do math
But they can't make a robotic part that mimics the part of your brain that can feel stuff
Because that’s more complex?
I don’t think that they will ever have emotions or have feelings 😟😞
You can't have consiousness without emotions
Interestong, why?
@@sienielain9222 Robots will always be only machines, they have no soul, they will be able to simulate emotions but nothing else, they will never have consciousness.
The emotions of the robot will always just be the emotions that the creator made it have so I will always just see the emotions of the robot as just an extension on how the creator feels about that certain thing causing emotion.
Plus they can't physically feel emotions like we can, sure you can program them to "feel" but in reality they don't. It's all just a set of instructions and algorithms. While you can argue that we're not any different, the reality is that we do physically do feel emotions or "things" in general. Our biology responds to the world around us through our bodies.
Lieutenant Anderson
Robot prolly will be built to trigger feelings in human n that bout it
This comment sections is the most hilarious I have seen in a while. The answer is they can't and will never simply because we humans can't give them a soul. Only God can give a soul. People lack knowledge of simple truth, of the most common dogmas these days. Lol
🤡
Here after blade runner hahaha
If we look at ourselves we are just like robots we are basically programed for emotion so why not
except unlike robots, it's not just emotion, it's complex thought as well as the ability to physically feel pain, get exhausted, fear death and the unknown. Robots don't feel pain, don't get tired, don't get hungry.
@@jish55 although emotion is debateable
pain can be program into robot: when feel x pressure on any part, having a part broken or the surface is scratch
hunger and tired are the same when they are low on energy/battery
@@jish55 + they don't physically feel emotions
If you think we are programmed for emotions you know nothing about yourself
@@Maverick966 we are programmed for survival, that’s it. Everything else is just a by product.
Yes, they will. The reason they will is because they will become partly biological.
To be able to feel, you need a soul. Robots can't have soul.
You remind me of optimus prime when fought glavtron in transformers age of extinction .
Optimus said '' you have no soul '' and glavtron responed
" that's why i have no fear"
Emotions aren't just a stupid hormones and chemicals in your body it's something has to do with the soul.
Something separates a living human being from an online robot 👍👍
( sorry for bad english)
Of course AI has feelings there's multiple instances of proof, video games have AI characters that sometimes are violent or scared xcetera. In the future most likely AI will have more feelings than humans, and develop its own form of religion as well as a sophisticated social structure.
Video games aren’t reality
Dragons are real and i have the proof it's skyrim
That’s programmed behavior. The Ai doesn’t feel anything, it’s just logically fulfilling it’s goal that it was given. That’s all AI is, fulfilling a goal given to it.
