Also all these stories seem to be projecting our own behavior on robots; Humans and apes like to be alpha males, because it gives them an evolutionary advantage; by extension it seems natural that Robots will also have the same drive for power; is that really true? I think that the Robot will not have such an in built desire - if it is based on reasoning then the machine might actually be more reasonable. In other words there is enough room for both Humans and Robots. |

The point is that our gadgets become more powerful and more potent as weapons; so as we have a good history of past abuses it is sort of easy to extrapolate to the future.
What is still don't understand: would intelligence be an inhibiting factor - like more reasonable Humans are supposedly less destructive; Maybe the same goes for machines.
I don't buy the argument about competition for resources - With enough effort you can always stretch it so that there is enough for everybody/everything.
Another interesting aspect: once upon a time people would become very agitated when discussing politics (that was when we still had ideological differences and when people thought that their stance does matter); In our time we have discussions about sci-fi instead of that.
