The recent advances in machine technology,and robotics notwithstanding, will
machines ever be truly humanlike.
For a Breath I Tarry, by Roger Zelazny (extract).
Mordel drove a shaft of metal downward into the snow.
He retracted it, raised it, held up a piece of ice.
"Regard this piece of ice, mighty Frost. You can tell me its
composition, dimensions, weight, temperature. A Man could not look at it
and do that. A Man could make tools which would tell him these things,
but He still would not know measurement as you know it. What he would
know of it, though, is a thing that you cannot know."
"What is that?"
"That it is cold," said Mordel and tossed it away.
