"...Besides finding that artificial intelligence, we also need preventive measures. We can't let those scientists and programmers cause trouble for us with impunity. From now on, all artificial intelligence must be subject to official control and oversight!"
On television, a group of American bureaucrats and assorted experts were holding forth on a talk show. They spoke about the dangers of artificial intelligence and pitched their own solutions and proposals. The discussion was quite heated.
The Ultron Incident had barely passed before the H.E.R.B.I.E. incident came along, leaving most people feeling threatened by the emergence of artificial intelligence.
