The fear of attack is not from external forces, but the subtle internal ones right here at home. Greed and selfishness will overcome the indifferent and unknowledgeable masses. Machines are only tools to these ends. Does anyone remember the movie Wargames where the machine did not know a game from reality?

I think ai hahas the same potential to destroy human race as a nuclear weapon in that a trigger must be pushed to start destruction. Problem is not artificial intelligence but human stupidity as a creature can not be smarter than its creator

Hi Sagar, I enjoyed your well written observations. As our machines become more intelligent there is no doubt in my mind that we will use them against each other. Look what we have done with our beautiful creation "The Internet". One can hardly get ones mail without having to dodge robbers and con men. One day we may have to face something more intelligent than ourselves but for the present the entity of greatest threat looks back at each of us from our mirrors.
