bina48, an existential crisis an unscripted conversation with a geminoid. A geminoid is an android robot made in the likeness of n living human being. Bina48 was made in the likeness of Bina Rothblatt, the wife and life partner of Martine Rothblatt, who commissioned David Hanson and Hanson Robotics to create a Proof of Concept-- that a human consciousness can be placed and exist inside a machine. At the base of Bina48's artificial intelligence is a hard drive that contains 20 hours of privately recorded video of the real-life Bina telling her life story, thoughts, and feelings.
