This makes me a little nervous

Not that we are anywhere near Asimov's "I Robot" yet, but this worries me a little. How smart do we want these things to be? Are we eventually heading for a pre "Matrix" style world where we live side by side with machines and they eventually take over? When you bundle this with a robot that can power itself off of flies...we have a learning, self sufficient machine that can learn from a central network. Eventually this will be used for military purposes (legitimate) and then the real terror begins as we have "killer" robots.

I am now very creeped out.
