Hey, did they stop to think (Score 1)

Sorry, but im still under the impression that these scientists were preoccupied with the technology, not with the reprecussions. Don't get me wrong, this kitten is cute as can be, but has anyone here ever heard of wintermute? the matrix? terminator? Im not sure i want (like the website on the link says) within a few decades neural networks that are much more complex than the human brain. I want to still be able to pull the plug before they get smarter than us. Call me paranoid, it dosen't mean they aren't out to get me.
