From: rick_s on 23 Jun 2010 15:17 Oh, you want to be a slider like your AI assistant. So then you have your room, its a holographic film of a street, you hand signal your assistant, his chest shows a symbol, right place, you snap your fingers, the room slides and you don't move. Than Einstein for that one. Now the scene is a different part of the world. And you didn't even muss your hair. If you want realism, and things you can pick up, then you need to do the usual mechanical magic of walls that switch or things that physically move. That's big production type stuff but for your own beaming around the world, your asssistant can handle the details all you have to do is tell it where you want to go. Its still just a visual experience but it could be a very convincing experience. Especially when someone walks out of a scene and is a real person who walked out from behind scene on cue. Especially when almost always they are just holograms. Or if you want your AI to sing and dance around your TV and use the TV as his chalkboard and be able to show movies and clips using it, while moves around and points and play acts, and signs and makes himself useful. Keep in mind he is only like 16 to 24 inches tall. (Larger if the computers can manage it) Then people will find ways to beam him across the room through the LAN. From one machine to another and soon he will be beaming all over the damn house. But being helpful everywhere he goes. Inputting the information is always the most tedious part but what if, you scanned every food item you brought into your house with the scanner on the fridge, and your AI assistant looked that information up on the net so he knew what it contained, he could suggest what to have for dinner based on nutritional diets provided by a plug in from some expert on diets. |
