"Cambridge researchers are to assess whether technology could end up destroying human civilisation."

Umm, of course technology will end up killing us all! That's if a asteroid doesn't wipe us out first, it will definitely be the excess heat from all our technology causing the oceans to boil and destroy everything, or killer articifically intelligent robots. Terminator is a premonition, people!

From the first article: "The scientists said that to dismiss concerns of a potential robot uprising would be "dangerous"."

As in: we might all get killed by robots when they rise up, "dangerous?" Yeah, they will have metal arms and lazers!

Dr. Palin: Well who really knows, but I know we need to operate until the job is done and get your heart back on track and declare victory - golly-gee!!

You: I am fucked.
