[QUOTE="dysert, post: 69752047, member: 303290"] I'm with the Sultan. I'm a computer programmer, and you wouldn't believe how hard it is to get even relatively simple things to work, let alone a self-replicating program with hardware interfaces (i.e., a robot). I know robots exist for specialized tasks, but to my knowledge they aren't self-replicating and are strictly doing what the programmers told it to do (at best). Humans just aren't smart enough to build something that smart. And btw, it was the founder of DEC (Digital Equipment Corp.), Ken Olsen, who couldn't imagine the need for a personal computer.
