How to change fiction into fact in three easy lessons.

One, read the article below.

"The paper which addresses Robo-rights, titled Utopian dream or rise of the machines? examines the developments in artificial intelligence and how this may impact on law and politics.

The paper says a "monumental shift" could occur if robots develop to the point where they can reproduce, improve themselves or develop artificial intelligence.

The research suggests that at some point in the next 20 to 50 years robots could be granted rights.

If this happened, the report says, the robots would have certain responsibilities such as voting, the obligation to pay taxes, and perhaps serving compulsory military service. Conversely, society would also have a duty of care to their new digital citizens, the report says. "

Two, remember all the sience fiction books and movies that you have seen. Take special note how realisticly and convincingly they were put together. Be sure to say 'Wow!' everytime there is a quantum leap in computer power.

Three, never question why your great grandfather made you like you are. Make that great to the hundredth power.
