today we watched another episode of the twilight zone the name of the episode was "I sing the body electric" which was about a family that has three kids that need a babysitter and they have had problems with all of the human sitters, so they resort to having a robot sitter created and to of the tree kids want to make the sitter look like their dead mother and in the end the robot looks exactly like their dead mother. and as the children grow up the robot they refer to as grandma teaches them about the world and essentialy fills the shoes of their dead mother until all the kids leave for college then "grandma" returns to the factory she was built in. I think that having robots or A.I.s teach our kids is a possibility in the near future because they have no bias and they can have access to an unlimited amount of information. on the other side of the table there is the argument that if you do not interact and or learn from a human you do not gain social skills.
