Sounds like a sci-fi horror movie, right?  Well, it turns out, this isn't just the stuff of nightmares anymore. It's happening right now, in labs across the globe. AI Got Your Back...

We think, "Hey, let's build a robot that's smarter than us, and then we can just sit back and relax while it does all the work." But what we're forgetting is that these machines, much like our teenage children, are prone to rebellion.
