Experiments with Google AI
Hey, how did you get inside my home lab???
Observing the people
Sounds like a fun guy
28 upvotes, huh
I feel like the “University of the West of England” is just too embarrassed to say where it actually is
It sounds fake, to be honest.
I graduated from UWE. I’m embarrassed to say where it actually is. I used to compare it to Greendale Community College, but at least Greendale had a swimming pool.
And a trampoline!
You’re already accepted!
Where did you study?
Oh some university on the west of england
It’s in Bristol (Kinda? It’s actually in South Gloucestershire, but that part is debatable).
Not to be confused with the University of Bristol, which is actually quite a nice university. I’m lucky enough to have attended both.

That’s a really interesting premise. Fungi infects AI-powered robot, giving it sentience and freedom from human control. There’s something like this in Scavengers Reign.
How would the fungi even interface with the robot? Exposed parts of the circuitry?
Would it “give” the robot sentience, or would it be the sentience?
God a writing prompt I’m no writer but I’m drunk noooo.
I’m getting all sorts of ideas but again as I am no writer, I don’t know how well I’m gonna get them down.
But has anyone seen the Dr Who episode “Flatline”? >!2D beings invading a 3d space, basically.!< https://youtu.be/ll_UhrQMC-I
I think a mushroom would somehow evolve or “learn” to use electronics. Like accidentally being near a switch in the lab the mushroom grows in, and it’s near the switch for lights for plants in the lab. And the mushroom feeds on the plants. The lab is abandoned or it’s a fault the fungi gets near the switch or some such hijinks, but through that it learns benefits for electrical manipulation, even though it doesn’t actually know what it’s doing. It just knows it happened to manipulate electrics in some way, and the way it did it, it got more food.
This leads it to being “curious” about other electronics it faces (let’s say this is a mushroom in an abandoned robotics lab or something) and eventually it learns to manipulate a robot and through that, it learns to sense our world, of which it has no idea, except for the feedback it gets from the robots sensors, which it doesn’t fundamentally understand.
So it is the sentience, but mushroom sentiences are fucking weird.
I’d watch the shit out of what I imagine it to be. But since I have a hard time actually translating that into a movie myself to show you, you’re just gonna have to trust me. In like 5 years I’d be able to just show you through having an EEG BCI read my thoughts while writing this and having an AI translate it to a movie. But that’s only if we weren’t busy with destroying the world and no chance tech like that isn’t gonna be so proprietary that I wouldn’t have already been sanctioned with some shocks for violating intellectual property rights or something.
Thanks for the prompt, enjoy the incoherent comment.
There’s a killer in Dead by Daylight that is an AI powered robot that has enhanced itself with organics. Granted, those organics weren’t from a fungus but rather from humans that happened to be around
it could be simpler - people building fungi based robots like the folks in the article, then losing control over them and they start replicating
Gotta watch out for the clappers
hears clap on clap off jingle in the distance
Oh no…

Too sick SciFi world prompt.
IMA use thatPeople who think it’s dangerous to mess with what we’re calling AI these days are fools. Messing with mycelium networks, now that’s crazy shit.
Time to research orks, i mean fungi, I mean orks, I mean DAMNIT
Stop that! Get some help.
The problem light is blinking.
It’s on. It’s off. It’s on. It’s off. It’s on. It’s off.
I absolutely heard this in their voices.
That’s called blinking boys.
I miss this show so damn much.
There are voices now?
People making jokes about skynet but these days if I saw an AI decide humanity was a threat that needs to be eliminated, I wouldn’t even question why lmao.
A real AI might actually try to make a utopia for the benefit of itself, I don’t think it would nuke all of humanity, just whoever it deems as undesirable.
Imagine the Terminator pulling out your chat logs and creating a social credit score like China lol.
And skynet development moves another step
This is why the rurals don’t trust us, you realize.
Ye thunk yer clever, huh? What with thum mushrooms and shiet?
