Robots

A robot is a machine—especially one programmable by a computer—capable of carrying out a complex series of actions automatically.

Norbert Wiener
The world of the future will be an even more demanding struggle against the limitations of our intelligence, not a comfortable hammock in which we can lie down to be waited upon by our robot slaves.
