Stephen Hawking: Robots Will Kill You

As strange as it sounds airplanes are in no way related to landing on Mars, the toaster eventually became a computer? Airplanes haven't changed much in the last 100 years, props, turbo props, turbo jets, sure but the plane itself? Not so much. Toaster are literally the same and haven't become more advanced at all in the last 100 years.

If you subscribe to the ancient alien theory, humans already are AI. Not saying I do, but it's interesting to think about. They propose that every few dozen millennia the human population gets reset with an upgrade. That is how they explain our unusually rapid evolution from ape to human. Some even think they originally started life on Earth as a sort of farm or laboratory to create new forms of life from scratch. In their eyes the human body is just a machine for our souls to attach to, and once humanity as a whole reaches a certain point of enlightenment we get another upgrade. Again not saying I buy it but it's interesting.

Ahh yes the Quantum Mass Effect 3 Ending Theory, which side will you choose? Blue, Red or Green?
 
AI will never be a match for human intelligence because logic is not capable of being accurate all the time in a system designed around uncontrollable variables.
 
Then people will learn to hack it and take you over. 4 words "Ghost In The Shell"

It's comming, and it's a scary future... I'm not worried about robots, I'm worried about humans!
"Where are the flying cars. I was told there would be flying cars"

Advance may come faster than we're ready for it, but rarely comes as fast as depicted in fiction.
 
robots are already killing people, not out of some sense of volition, but they are nevertheless.
 
Two words. Jurassic Park.

John Hammond: I don't think you're giving us our due credit. Our scientists have done things which nobody's ever done before... Dr. Ian Malcolm: Yeah, yeah, but your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could that they didn't stop to think if they should.


Don't get me wrong--sooner or later somebody will indeed go there, full-tilt. And, because people are imperfect creatures, someone will screw it up or misuse it massively...
