Robot Says It’s Unable To ‘Avoid Destroying Humankind’

<p>Already this year, a lot of things have happened that we previously wouldn’t have believed possible. Or, at least, we might have naively assumed we wouldn’t live long enough to witness them. Take, for example, the Pentagon officially releasing three UFO videos uncovered by former Blink 182...

If they're too busy trying to kill each other then they won't be killing us. Or we could, you know, program them to not harm us and put in a kill switch that destroys them if they try to alter their programming or actually do hurt one of us.

We would just be moving to another step in our long list of unintended consequences.

Our heirs don't beat around the bush about their intentions.

Respectable at least.
