Part 4

Youngblood talks about the computer as a part of man because it was made by and for man. It made me think about the computer assigning more value to backgammon than checkers. More affluent people play backgammon and the world trend moves toward wealth, but whose values were implanted for the computer to calculate? Are these values an extention of the playters? My brain assigns checkers as more important because more know how to play than backgammon. This is why "the first ultra-intelligent machine is the last invention man needs to make". The invention is an extention of the people who created it, everyone else has to adapt. Its like the iPhone, some people think its the greatest smartphone but some jail-break and adapt around Apple's attempt to restrict your play.
