A user asked the renowned author: "Professor Michio Kaku, my question to you is will artificial intelligence eventually render human labor and intelligence obsolete? "If so, in what areas can human excel at that machine learning algorithms and can not?" His chilling response read: "Right now, robots have the intelligence of a bug. "They can barely walk across a room. Simple tasks done by humans – picking up garbage, fixing a toilet, building a house, solving a crime – are way beyond what a robot can do.

Future robots could kill humans in a'murderous' rage if humans don't take steps to stop them, a prominent futurist has claimed. Dr Michio Kaku believes we can put a stop to the killer robots by simply embedding chips in their brains to control their thoughts. Robots could be smart enough to'become dangerous' before the end of this century, Kaku warned during a question and answer session on Reddit. 'I think we should chip their brain to shut them off if they have murderous thoughts,' he explained. The humanoid robot'Alter' (pictured) has sensors that mimic the neural network of the human brain.
