Fame and the glorification of human personality must be reconsidered when humankind starts creating machinekind which will, some time in C21 surpass him in every way. To start this analysis, we note that human personalities are analyzed in part-whole relationships. An argument was then made that in comparing the performance of these parts with analogous human parts, machine capabilities either surpass human capabilities or soon will do so.
Machines can detect physical stimuli with greater acuity than the human senses.
Machines can also out-think humans with respect to the thinking component of job performance as long as the expert system programs are limited to particular jobs. Machines can grasp, lift, position themselves accurately, traverse distances and otherwise surpass humans in behavioral criteria. How intelligent machines attain these objectives or criteria is not the same as how humans attain them. But the issue has to do with outcome and machines are superior already in so many ways. That would depend on the weighting of the different variables in the profile.
