Finished Reading: I, Robot by Isaac Asimov 📚
Stephen Byerley’s rise to the World Co-ordinator hints at a future ruled through humanism. Ironically, robots may be better at this than human.
Humans will have a hard time distinguishing robots and humans when logic and systems thinking prevails. Illogical thinking will expose humans. Therefore, robots/ai will have built-in faults (features) in order to mask itself to gain acceptance.
I, Robot (pub. 1950) doesn’t tell a future with networked robots. If/when robots can disseminate and absorb common knowledge at near instantaneously speed, human’s (dis)ability to learn will be the critical constraint for competition.
