Stephen Hawking. Stupid people?The last quote I saw from Hawking sure sounded like it came from a stupid person. He said that the human race must seriously consider some sort of program to alter our DNA, or else androids would eventually take over the world.
That's the kind of schtuff you might believe if you don't believe in a benevolent Creator.

Current estimates are that "smarter than the humans" AI will pop up around 2050 or so.
