History Rules My Tomorrow

A question to ponder: are we as humans pre-programmed to "follow in our father's footsteps?" Is there something inherent in our heritage? Do we repeat what our forefathers and mothers did?

And if so, can we apply these inherited cross-generational learning methods as we invent the next generations of intelligent systems? Rather than creating AI that is artificial and intended to replace human work, can we create intelligent systems that AUGMENT the human's work and support him or her? Can we invent intelligent systems that learn and improve themselves with the mind of creating betterment for all humans as well?
