Robot Apocalypse Watch, Volume 9

From an article last year about the future of artificial intelligence:

Although Hollywood often likes to present us with a world full of self-aware and destructive robots in the style of I Robot, this is not the way the science of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is headed, says British Computer Society President and ECS Professor of Artificial Intelligence Nigel Shadbolt.

But, concludes Professor Shadbolt: ‘You don’t need to worry about the robot next door deciding to make a bid for world domination!’

LIKELY story, "Professor" Shadbolt.  Funny, there are some facts missing from your little report:

• When was your last physical?
• How come there is no record, in any online database, of you ever bleeding?
• Why so interested in defending the robots, if they're not self-aware and thus don't need defending?

I'm watching you, "Professor". 

P.S. Shadbolt? It's like you're not even trying to invent a real-sounding name.
