If intelligent robots step in to rescue the precious planet Earth from its imminent destruction by irresponsible human beings, there may no longer be such a thing as democracy. Robot society may be like a giant monolith with a supreme Overmind governing all the co-operative robots working together for the common good.

Compared to our current American society, where the wealthy one percent entrench themselves with ever-increasing riches passed on from generation to generation with fewer and fewer limitations, Earth with robots running the show looks like a garden of Eden.

Mentifex here confesses that I don't really know what I am talking about. Along with my study of foreign languages in college, I earnedtwenty-five credits in economics until I could go no further due to ignorance of mathematics.

Today at Project Mentifex we have released our TikTok AI video #59 at

https://www.tiktok.com/@sullenjoy/video/7233435206517148974

which describes the

https://ai.neocities.org/AskUser.html -- mind module as follows.

"Our open-source software for Artificial General Intelligence has several modalities for thinking in English, or German, or Russian, or ancient Latin. These modalities include the indicative mood, the imperative mood and a primitive form of interrogative mood expressed in the AskUser module. We wrote the original code for AskUser before we even created separate mind-modules for separate moods. We needed AskUser for the AGI Minds to request input from a human user. These first AGI Minds were created by Arthur Murray, who served in the U.S. Army as a Nuclear Weapons Electronics Specialist. If you work in a secret or open AI lab, you might volunteer to flesh out an Interrogative mind-module that will subordinate the functions of the AskUser module to the Volition module."

For more discussion consider the ideas of the AI experts.
