story imageCBC News is looking out for your health and safety, by combining unrelated quotes by Stephen Hawking and Elon Musk, adding a Terminator image, and making sure you are well warned of the impending robot revolution. Here it is:
Two leading voices in the world of science and technology warn that robots equipped with artificial intelligence could be leading humanity down a dangerous path.

Elon Musk, the billionaire founder of SpaceX and Tesla motors, told a pair of CNBC reporters that he thought robots were "dangerous."

"There have been movies about this, you know, like Terminator."

Despite his reservations, Musk himself has recently invested in an artificial intelligence company.
The first strike by the robots would be, naturally, to cripple humanity by operating on human unborn in the womb. That's a bad thing, no a good thing, no wait, now I'm confused.

Given the quality of reporting at places like CBS and CNN these days, there is reason to believe AI already exists, and is intentionally dumbing us down by feeding us a steady diet of Kim Kardashian articles, weight loss tips, and vapid sit-com programming. We may not have yet created artificial intelligence, but as far as I can tell, real intelligence is quickly fading. At least in America.
