It is always interesting when science fiction become science fact.
Larry Niven wrote an entire series of SF novels about this.

Larry Niven wrote an entire series of SF novels about this. The Gil the A.R.M. story cycle to be specific, although there are echos of it in most of Niven's other universes. Well worth a read (as are all the Known Space stories), if you can find any of it. I think it has been out of print for a while.
