Summary

Artificial intelligence could change our future. Developing intelligent robots would, for instance, enable us to carry out tasks that are too dangerous or complicated to manage ourselves. But how far can we go? How would we treat a thinking machine? Would we consider it alive? Would it have feelings? Would we use it only for good, or could an intelligent machine turn against us?
