Never gonna happen. Not unless the computers could take away our will to be free or our ability to resist through fighting or inaction.

Totally true, but i think it's perfectly possible that even when the allready legendary human vs droid war WOULD start and we fight back, droids could outman, outgun and outsmart us.
Nothing is sure though much is possible. Especially as long as the opposite isn't proved ..

NUKE THE WHOLE PLANET!

Sure, we'll probably end up killing ourselves and every other living thing on the planet except the cockroaches, but they'll get mutated into super intelligent roaches who will take over our newly created wasteland.

LOL really if you look at the world it already has been taken over by computers. look and the gaming industries it is not just PS3, XBOX360, and the Wii. it is also the computers and the companies are doing this because they know sooo many people have computers and not nearly as many have gaming consoles.

I believe the US army will create man controlled battle droids.
These will be controlled by pro gamers.
But it will only take the enemy to hack the wifi link and return fire on friendlys.
Could turn out quite bad.
there are already devices which are not effected by emps.
So it will be a battle of hacking the battle droids to eliminate the opposition.
This would make a great game.

Dear users,
 
                    Once Lord Kelvin and Dr.Albert Einstein were both skeptical about the birth and advent of quantum mechanics...but see fnrdzz what happened...dats , months, years went by...and quantum mechanics became a part of our lives.....in the same way...AI, it's birth, it's advent, it's progress can't be underestimated for god's sake at least......we will see in the coming years we will be having a time machine, a usual phenomenon of teleportation, and of course computers taking control of ourselves......


PPL SAYING THAT COMPUTERS MAY NOT BECOME THEIR MASTERS....YOU SEE ALFRED NOBEL WAS SURE PPL WON'T USE GRANITE CAUSE IT'S DESTRUCTIBLE...THEY WOULD FEAR THEM BUT THEY WERE USED TO THE EXTENT OF NUCLEAR WEAPONS....that's y AI is something for which computer scientists are gettignmad today because they like challenges.... ;)

I guess the idea is that anything can happen.

Nice Idea  ;D
