Steve: Will computers ever take over the world?
James: No. You'll always need people to build them and fix them.
Steve: What if somebody made a computer so intelligent it managed to rid the world of humans?
James: But it would still go wrong at some point. Every computer eventually goes wrong. Who would fix it if there were no humans?
Steve: If it were clever enough it would have invented the machine that could fix it.
James: If it were really clever it wouldn't make itself reliant on another machine. That would give the other machine power over it.
Steve: True. But wouldn't humans have power over it if we invented it?
James: Exactly. That's why computers will never rule the world.
