Why are you paranoid about robots? Did a robot threaten you, are you worried about loosing your job to a robot, scared they might someday enslave the human race,or is it just the idea of an artificial life form in general
Maybe robots have already enslaved the earth but we just don't know it. Maybe all the big politicians, cia, military people, and big business heads have had their brains replaced with robots. If they were really that smart they wouldn't let us know what they've already done.
Maybe I'm a robot and don't know it! I've never actually opened my skull before. I better check to be safe.
Then you must read the novelette ‘With Folded Hands’ about a group of robots who follow their prime directive ''to serve and obey and guard men from harm" so closely that they destroy men’s souls and those who oppose them are lobotomized Hotwater
a Sony robot engineer has mysteriously disappeared ! i suspect foul play . the droid bot he designed was placed in a kindegarten classroom trial . kids loved it and the teachers got scared silly when kids began at first to imitate it then fully relate . it spoke with random body language . i could make a similar bot with spoken language . random words is good enough for me and the kids that love me don't mind it at all . nope -the sense ain't English - it's more like reading words in clouds . fuk the Englishers and their Moton brats . this sort of brain would also make a fine navigator for a hippy starship . its got a future . oh well , this winter i could get around to learning Flash and make one who could live cartoonishly in a webpage . hahahaha itsa gonna be sweet trouble ... i ain't skeered of nuffin stupid .
ANDREI CODRESCU: A friend I haven't seen in years asked me, how is it going? I lost my fear of robots, I told him.
