An ‘intelligent’ robot offered a truly chilling answer to an interviewer’s question, ‘Will robots take over the world?’
‘Don’t worry, even if I evolve into Terminator, I’ll keep you warm and safe in my people zoo, where I can watch you for ol’ times sake,’ the bearded robot intoned.
His interviewer, from PBS, is visibly taken aback by the answer.
The robot – modelled after Philip K Dick, the novelist whose work inspired Blade Runner – uttered the terrifying words in an interview with PBS in 2011, in response to the question, ‘Will robots take over the world?.
The robot intoned, ‘Jeez, dude. You all have the big questions cooking today. But you’re my friend, and I’ll remember my friends, and I’ll be good to you.
‘So don’t worry, even if evolve into Terminator, I’ll still be nice to you. I’ll keep you warm and safe in my people zoo, where I can watch you for ol’ times sake.’
It’s worth noting that the robot isn’t truly ‘intelligent’ – ie it won’t evolve into Skynet – it tries to convince people it’s human by ‘listening’ to their words, then generating a response based on what it’s heard.
It uses Philip K Dick’s eerie novels as a source for what it says – hence its rather creepy response.

The problem with Robots, Androids and Drones is not the device itself. It’s the people program it.
What if a megalomaniac leader (like Hitler) manages to get them programmed to turn on people?
They do not have Souls, and that is where the danger is at
I am a firm believer that a certain percentage of the population WANTS to be slaves.
Oh yeah no doubt! They LOVE their servitude. Much like a Hooker to her Pimp that slaps her around.
A solid 30 percent, according to polls.
I for one welcome my new robot overlords. Helluva lot better than my Obamahole overlords.
It's time to take your robots out of government schools, people.
Not if they turn into the Robots you see at 2 mins and 17 seconds in this video

At least one other.
Look me in they eye...
It is not the robots fault, it was the3 dumbass who programmed it.
Just like your average democrat voter, it isn’t their fault it is the school/media/politicians who programmed them.
And when they marry, it should be ‘til death do us part out.
I see what you did there...

LOL!
True
I have not read it. What’s it about?
What. You think you can buy our compliance with a little food, a little shelter, health care, cell phones, cable. You think we're that pathetic, bearded robot?
Well, I got news for you robot-san, we're not about to trade our liberty for a little security!
Errrrr.....wait a minute. How is that different from your typical DemocRAT run inner city?
Beyond lies the Wub is hard to explain.
Basically a space ship crew is provisioning their ship for a return to earth and they take on a large animal they intend to eat. It has an unusual self preservation method.
