“The computer scientist Donald Knuth was struck that “AI has by now succeeded in doing essentially everything that requires ‘thinking’ but has failed to do most of what people and animals do ‘without thinking’—that, somehow, is much harder!”

“Oh,” Lewis said, “well if you won’t let us then— Wait…wait a minute.… I’m looking at my shoulder patch and it turns out I’m the commander. Sit tight. We’re coming to get you.” “Smart-ass.”

“Te läänemaade inimesed jääte liiga sageli nääklema selliste asjade kallal nagu näiteks, kas päike on ümmargune või kuum," arutles Amrita. "Ja siis need, kelle meelest päike on ümmargune, kuid mitte kuum, püüavad tappa kõik need inimesed, kes ütlevad, et päike on kuum, aga mitte ümmargune.”

“Oma raamatus "Planeete nagu vihma" tsiteerite te seda XIX sajandi inimest, kes muretseb liikluse pärast Pariisis, kuna näeb kõikjal hobuseid. Ta ennustab, et peagi on tänavail meetripaksune sõnnikukiht."
"See inimene teeb sedasama, mida meie - ta ekstrapoleerib ning ei oska arvestada juhuse, ettenägematu arengu, progressiga. Te võite ise näha, kui palju eksib ta üheainsa sajandiga. Kujutlege nüüd, kui palju pean mina eksima, kui ma projitseerin end miljoneid aastaid ettepoole!”
