Michio Kaku Quote

But on the question of whether the robots will eventually take over, he {} 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.
