Interesting link. I had heard as a kid that you could kill a tree by driving a copper nail into it. That the copper was poisonous to the tree. These copper coins pounded into the trees seem to disprove that theory.

An interesting read...

Artificial Morality
By Bruce Sterling

“The Future of the Future: The Ethics and Implications of AI” conference.
Quote:
It’s like the ethical difference between being two parish priests and becoming Pope.
Of course the actual Pope will confront Artificial Intelligence. His response will not be “is it socially beneficial to the user-base?” but rather, “does it serve God?” So unless you’re willing to morally out-rank the Pope, you need to understand that religious leaders will use Artificial Intelligence in precisely the way that televangelists have used television.
