Ahh but we're not discussing the power of machines, or at least I'm not. For clarity I'm referring to the possibility of self aware and superior minds given control because of economics at least initially. The conclusions I reached is based on that as a possibility. Whether it comes to pass or not we have already cut out people from traditional jobs because we have decided that their dignity is secondary to productivity. I think this isn't a thing to be taken lightly.

What machine would put productivity over dignity. How could it have any self respect if it did?

Oh M, speaking of Gort, read the short story about Gnut. The movie was loosely based on a short story that is public domain and on the net. "Farewell to the master" I think. The ending bears consideration.
