With enough memory, and a great code writer, anything is possible.

Of course they can. LCDR Data has already proven this.

I am sure we can never forget the two computers in the movies 2001: A Space Odyssey and 2010. In the 2010 movie, there are two computers: the HAL-9000 and the SAL-9000.

How far along are we in these kind of computers who could be just as human as we are?

HAL 9000 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


The link above is the movie link to the conversation between Dr. Chandra and SAL-9000 in 2010.

That is wat I am saying. I think that if someone were to try and make a computer learn then things could be better or if they used it for the wrong thing then it wouldn't be worth much at all(unless the government used it for something).
