More Evidence

How much more evidence do we need? A new Jersey robot parking garage refuses to give up its cars, and all the government does is ban shampoo on airplanes?! When are people going to wakeup to the robot menace?

I think we can learn a lot from this situation. It seems that just like today's ruling oligarchy or future robot overlord is also motivated by money.

I see it all now. Robots will become more human, and humans will become more robot-like. We'll pass each other in the middle and not even wave.

Just wait until robots get enough intelligence to feel "taken for granted" or feel that "their needs are not being met". You'll have to call a robot therapist to get your dang car back. At this point we'll be wishing there had some some sort of straight-forward apocalyptic confrontation as we sit on the sidewalk, luggage at our feet, keys in hand, pleading our case.

"Look, BFR9000, I've been busy lately, I'm sorry I didn't send you an e-mail on you activation date, and I know I've been stand-offish, but if you give me my car back, I'll make it up to you, I swear."
