Check out this new trailer for "Automata" which is based I think on the same book about robots and the laws of robotics as "I, robot" but looks much cooler...
In a world where nobody'd ever written a book or made a movie about robots wiping out the human race or doing bad things, this'd really be an eye-opener.

Here, not so much.
It's always been a popular theme in science fiction going right back to the 1950s and 1960s, but here we have some scientists saying it could theoretically happen in real life ie. that robots or computers could become intelligent or be independent 'thinkers' and start to cause havoc.

A lot of science fiction is based on what scientists speculate could theoretically happen in real life.

Thing is there have been scientists saying this for years too. Have a look for "technological Singularity". If you feel paranoid, take note of the fact that one of the foremost writers on the subject, Ray Kurzweil, was recently made a director of engineering at Google.
They can indeed ie. kill us in a one on one situation but we have the intelligence and the technology to keep them under control, which is why we are effectively ruling the planet, not them
Yup ... that's why I said I agreed with the gist of it ... that a truly intelligent machine could have the capacity to kill.
The comment about robots being "taught about the value of human life" is an interesting one. On the face of it, that's fine, but a truly intelligent machine could simply choose to ignore what it had been taught!
I suppose, if an Artificial Intelligence did arise and decide to wipe us out, that AI would be doing the planet a world of good (provided the means of execution wasn't too catastrophic) cause lord knows, we're ****ing up this planet and it's wildlife, and even, each other.
Our demise (as a species) might be what this planet needs; there's a pessimistic view for all.

Or Antonio Banderas...

It might also explain why Helen won Big Brother. I never could believe that it was humans voting for her.

It's really not a new thing.
