But on the question of whether the robots will eventually take over, he [Rodney A Brooks] says that this will probably not happen, for a variety of reasons.  First, no one is going to accidentally build a robot that wants to rule the world.  He says that creating a robot that can suddenly take over is like someone accidentally building a 747 jetliner.  Plus, there will be plenty of time to stop this from happening.  Before someone builds a ‘super-bad robot’, someone has to build a ‘mildly bad robot’, and before that a ‘not-so-bad robot’.  Michio Kaku, The Future of the Mind: The Scientific Quest to Understand, Enhance, and Empower the Mind
