"So the totality of humanity, with all of its biologic messiness, wasn't wanted. And to this machine-god, forgiveness just did not compute. Only cold retribution for the sins of the past."
- Frakes, Terminator 2: Judgment Day


April 11, 2011–Roman Yampolskiy is Assistant Professor and Head of Cyber Security Lab at University of Louisville. In an article posted at Innovation News Daily, "Humanity Must 'Jail' Dangerous AI to Avoid Doom, Expert Says", Dr. Yampolskiy was quoted as warning: "..."If such software manages to self-improve to levels significantly beyond human-level intelligence, the type of damage it can do is truly beyond our ability to predict or fully comprehend,"

We catch up with him to talk about A.I. (artificial intelligence), cyberspace privacy and security, and why he believes that computers can outstrip human performance. As he tells us: "Very little is known about how to protect ourselves from such technologies." ~Randy Maugans
