- What Would Happen If We Built Computers That Could Outsmart Us? By:-Mallory Megan
So what would take place if we ever did design computers that were more intelligent than us? Would human beings be rendered obsolete? Could humans and computers ever develop some sort of understanding? Science fiction writer Isaac Asimov was one of the first people to propose safety precautions for AI with his "Three Laws of Robotics." The first law the computers must follow is that a robot may not injure a human being or let a human being get hurt through inaction. The second law is that robots have to comply with the orders given to it by humans, except when these orders would conflict with the first rule. And the third law is that a robot must protect its own existence as long as doing so doesn't conflict with the first or second law. Of course, things don't go down that smoothly in Asimov's fiction.

I mentioned the fact that it is very possible that in the distant (or not so distant) future, a computer might be built that could outsmart a human being! So if the singularity may be looming in the future, how would human beings get over that initial first hurdle of creating a computer that is smarter than humanity? Theorists reason there are two ways: amplifying the intelligence of human brains until we are smart enough to come up with this computer, and artificial intelligence.
