The Cylons were created by Man.
They Rebelled.
They Evolved.
They Look and Feel Human.
Some are programmed to think they are Human.
There are many copies.
And they have a Plan.

Most people are disgusting. Also, willmore sophisticated robots hit the mainstream market soon? The technology for vacuum and lawn mowing robots is old. They had to create a robot with high reliability consistently for the individual robot, and the millions that would be produced.

"...However, the idea that general-purpose robots, capable of learning, will become widespread is wrong"

File that statement with this one...

"Everything that can be invented has been invented." --Charles H. Duell, Commissioner, U.S. Office of Patents, 1899.

as my old machining instructor was fond of saying:

you ALWAYS turn the machine off.
you ALWAYS flip the lock-out cover plate into place.
you ALWAYS insert the red safety pin/flag.
you NEVER trust anyone, and you NEVER assume a dad-blamed thing.
