Could they have found a name more wrought with connotations? We'll be the thing's prey. We'll pray for our lives when it catches us. We'll pray to it once it's enslaved us.

"Luckily" we'll probably all be dead by the time any of this reaches chaos theory stage. Don't know why these people insist on pursuing this technology don't they read or watch movies? Probably not, too busy creating the future.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[malexandria]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 1st 2009 6:55AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Preyro robot experiment could enable robots to better mimic animals, kill us all]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/01/preyro-robot-experiment-could-enable-robots-to-better-mimic-anim/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/01/preyro-robot-experiment-could-enable-robots-to-better-mimic-anim/</guid><description><![CDATA[If humans create robots that can think and reason, they should be able to in turn, create even better robots and technology since they have the ability to instantly design and virtualy test theories. <br><br>I can't wait !]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Quantumphysics]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 1st 2009 7:31AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Preyro robot experiment could enable robots to better mimic animals, kill us all]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/01/preyro-robot-experiment-could-enable-robots-to-better-mimic-anim/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/01/preyro-robot-experiment-could-enable-robots-to-better-mimic-anim/</guid><description><![CDATA[They also have the ability to kill us in a more excruciating manner; let's hope the scientists behind these developments hardcode the 3 rules deep into their genetics!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Samboini]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 1st 2009 7:36AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Preyro robot experiment could enable robots to better mimic animals, kill us all]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/01/preyro-robot-experiment-could-enable-robots-to-better-mimic-anim/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/01/preyro-robot-experiment-could-enable-robots-to-better-mimic-anim/</guid><description><![CDATA[Movies are not real.

I'd say he's pretty aware of the dangers, both real and philisophical, of evolving robots into human eating tyrants. Were he to nuture such a robot, i'd say it would be a decent robot, even if it ate people, because I imagine the robot would pick up some of professor long's sense of humour and fairness. I may keep an emp bomb at hand while i'm at vassar, just in case :)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[kingfisher9704]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 5th 2009 8:26PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
