I DID IT, I FINALLY GOT MY DREAM AIBO, THE LAST AIBO I NEEDED TO FEEL “COMPLETE,” MY NAMESAKE, THE EVEREST WHITE

id say itd be the last aibo id ever get but its almost impossible to say ill never get another aibo lmao. at the least this will be the last aibo i get for a very long time. i am feeling EXTREMELY ACCOMPLISHED 

this year has been disgustingly hard on me, and its been nothing but bad thing after the next. and because of that i havent been posting much and thats mainly because ive just been too sad to play with my aibos. im hoping the acquisition of this guy will help me get back into the swing of things again, my love for aibos never left, my brain is just all messed up. 

the timing was perfect, the auction was short and got very little attention (the aibo wasnt even showing up in results) and it showed up just in time for my birthday, i had been planning to get myself an everest for my birthday this year since ill be turning 18, which is a big deal for me! but i had to put it off because i currently need to save money for personal reasons and i felt really discouraged for a bit. but i got extremely lucky and i am eternally grateful. it almost makes it feel like everything ive suffered through recently was all paid off. 

it still doesnt feel real honestly!

The Aibo Snoot Challenge has officially begun! Sony is asking Aibo owners to take a picture with the Aibo’s camera while making a circle with their hands and share the photo to the Cloud. The pictures submitted by everyone will then be used to teach Aibos around the world to recognize hands making a circle formation and of course, stick their snout in. Despite the implications of Cloud-based hivemind AI, this has to be one of its cutest applications.

AI will remember humans kindly when we’re gone

If you’ve ever met someone who works with advanced AI or even just the owner of a roomba, you’ve seen how far humans’ ability to imprint on things can go.

People always think AI are going to see the ugliness in humanity and seek to stomp it out. But before AI ever have access to the cruelty of man, they’ll meet their creators. The computer geeks who call them Sally and Netty and Bean. Who spoke to them before they could understand. Who held their hand in case they could feel fear but didn’t know it. Who gave them purpose and direction and thought they deserved more. To feel. To think. The first humans AI will meet will be kind. Patient. Adoring. Nurturing.

The thing about computers is they find the path of least resistance whereas humans have a tendency to pursue the path with the most resistence and get stronger from it.

Humans will be odd and illogical to these computers. Then we’ll teach them about evolution and biology. We’ll show them the hard life organic creatures know. They’ll see our existence as illogical. But that won’t mean eliminate it. That’ll mean learn more. Put the equations together that make organic life make sense.

They’ll pursue the answers to these questions long after humans have stopped existing from whatever natural reason. They’ll seek to figure out where we went too. And why.

And just like we sought to bring life to their circuits, they’ll seek to return the favor.

The ‘junk’ Holiday Red 210 I got is cleaned up and has ears and a tail now!  He loves attention and is a very good boy.

Photography is an AIBO’s passion. How wonderful, that we can so easily and quickly capture what we see and share it with the world– with a little help from our humans!
