devices for channeling behavior in a direction beneficial to the survival of one's species.”.
Extropian futurists like Moravec and Kurzweil have proposed that,
thanks to exponentially growing computing power, it will someday be possible to upload human consciousness onto a computer system, and live indefinitely in a virtual environment.

He says robots“will try to please you in an apparently selfless manner because it will get a thrill out of this positive reinforcement. You can interpret this as a kind of love.”
