Karen Hudes:
Two words: "A.I."
Actually, did anyone see the PBS special a couple weeks back on robotics?
Most scientists and scholars in the field believe that robots will coexist
with humans as "persons" (servants, co-workers, family members) in the near
future. When you see how lifelike they're becoming--and how useful they
could be--it starts to feel fairly inevitable.
