I have to admit that when the first drone lands in my backyard with a package, it’s going to make me nervous. There may be some hesitation to go outside to pick the package up. I think I’ll watch through the window to make sure the drone flies safely off. 

Every robot is not your friend

If you have ever seen a movie that features artificial intelligence (AI), you understand the excitement, conflict, and even the fears surrounding the topic of AI. Robotics has developed into a big business with strong ethical and moral implications.

A machine that can think like a human is a fascinating idea. A machine that can feel love and hate or be good or evil is scary!

Since the 1980s, AI in the form of a robot has been depicted in classic films such as “War Games,” Blade Runner,” “The Terminator,” “West World”, “I, Robot,” “Wall-E,” “The Matrix” and “Robocop.” Then of course there is Hal from “2001 Space Odyssey.” It’s a long list, and most robot films usually lead to the ultimate Halloween scenario.
