Small rant about Artificial intelligence ......

If we create something as smart as ourselves, we will be forced to kill it, control it, or be killed by it. Any somewhat intelligent machine would quickly understand what kind of plague the human species is, and in a fight for its own survival, destroy us. Otherwise we would be forced to enslave intelligent creatures, which is horrible in its own right. I know Stephen Hawking has similar views on A.I. and robotics, so at least I share my soapbox with someone much smarter than myself!
