This stuff kind of freaks me out. How long until we're all slaves to Skynet?
Didn't anyone see Terminator?

The manner that the Facebook and the Twitter influence decision making in this country, I would suggest we are already there.
What are you worried about? I am sure our robot overlords will keep us plugged into the matrix so everything will be right as rain.
You wouldn't believe how realistic they are now. (WARNING: NSFW-simulated nudity)

Damnit, I bet they use cookies. Now Im gonna have inflatable sex doll adds popping up.
The good news is football will continue as players will be replaced by robots. If they get CTE no one will care.
Imagine the range of emotions when wives walk in on the husband pounding a realistic doll like those. Anger to relief to disgust to anger. And that is before she finds out how much Crystal cost.
And Jimbo will still complain because he doesn’t have a robot sauna
He'll have to keep a close eye on his robot wife around opposing team's players.
Oh, then it won't be weird when my mom uses my computer and sees my targeted ads. Again.
I used to watch some of this show, My Strange Addiction. Some pretty weird episodes. This episode was up there.

More in line with OP’s subject line:
“Existing drones, Bry says, generally require a human pilot. Some offer pilot-assist features that aid the human controller. But that’s the equivalent of having a car with adaptive cruise control — which automatically adjusts vehicle speed to maintain a safe distance from the cars ahead, Bry says. Skydio, on the other hand, “is like a driverless car with level-four autonomy,” he says, referring to the second-highest level of vehicle automation.
R1’s system integrates advanced algorithm components spanning perception, planning, and control, which give it unique intelligence “that’s analogous to how a person would navigate an environment,” Bry says.
On the perception side, the system uses computer vision to determine the location of objects. Using a deep neural network, it compiles information on each object and identifies each individual by, say, clothing and size. “For each person it sees, it builds up a unique visual identification to tell people apart and stays focused on the right person,” Bry says.
That data feeds into a motion-planning system, which pinpoints a subject’s location and predicts their next move. It also recognizes maneuvering limits in one area to optimize filming. “All information is constantly traded off and balanced … to capture a smooth video,” Bry says.”
Will be fun running from the police in a few years when they can launch this off the back of their car, or maybe just toss it from their pocket and point to the suspect...

The problem with AI, and the issue that keeps so many of the deep thinkers of the world staying up at night is how alien AI intelligence is. We've already seen issues where Computers being able to talk to each other and learn from one another eventually created their own language that their programmers could not understand any longer. They disabled them because they weren't sure what they were doing any more.
What makes us human is our limbic system. It's also what makes us so dangerous. I would hope that no one would ever try to develop an AI with a functioning limbic system, but then that CPU becomes completely alien to us and we won't be able to expect where it goes. One discussion was related to tasking a computer with researching and finding ways to create the greatest human level of happiness, so the computer decides to take over a plant, creates nano-machines that invade our bodies, place us in medical commas and do nothing but tickle our pleasure centers for eternity.
There's been a big push for international treaties between countries in how they'll be willing to research AI, but it can't get traction amongst politicians because none of them understand it.

Has anyone else seen the movie Her? It offers a plausible AI-dominated version of the future that doesn't destroy humanity.
Yes. It sounded like a silly movie but it is quite good. I was surprised how much I liked it.
Spoiler to her.........
In the end she still dumped him. Even AI breaks hearts.

All mammals have a limbic system. What makes us human is multi-level abstract thinking and possibly subjective experience.
That's true. That was poorly worded. What makes us human is our ability to ponder our own existence. I was referring to comparison to computers however. Computers can be programmed to ponder existence, what we should not program them to do is to fear and support the capacity for anger.
