<friendly>Storman Norman!
 
<surprised>
wet towels??? 
</surprised>
 
<robotvoice>
Our only protection is to fit coconut shells 
over our <thought>so very tiny</thought> brains.  
</robotvoice>
 
<whisper>
Don't forget to carve emblems into our coconut heads,  that pay tribute
to our artilects. :P

	Maybe we would have to wear a wet towel around our heads like in
the movie "Total Recall" (Arnold Schwarzenegger), aye???

		I watched a Horizon documentary some time ago concerning
the building of an Artilect (Artificial intellect, i.e. Super
Intelligent Machine). 
		
		The Artilect in the Horizon programme was being based on
the way the human brain works, but with the potential of being up to a
trillion times more intelligent with the addition of computer
programming. Could this artilect possibly retain the defence mechanism
of a human brain without anyone realising it?
		 
		At one point in the programme an experiment was shown in
which a monkey was physically moving a control stick with its hand and
also had electrodes & wires attached from its head to the same control
stick. The monkey then released its grip on the control stick and was
able to manipulate the control stick just by thinking about it, i.e.
electrical impulses from the monkey's brain were being transmitted down
the wires to the control stick (or so we were told). 
		
		If a monkey could do that, then is it possible that
electrical impulses (such as radio waves) could be emitted from a super
intelligent machine to control the electrical impulses in the human
brain in order to manipulate humans? Would we humans be able to
comprehend how ingenious such a machine could be? 
		
		Once a super intelligent machine was switched on, humans
might never again be in control of their own minds to be able to switch
it off.
		 
		Please discuss.
