Abstract Imagine a world where smart machines do all the work—a world in which man no longer lives by the sweat of his brow. Intelligent robots, freely available to all, provide all the economic benefits of slavery without any of its moral and ethical drawbacks. Want a new home? Just ask a robotic architect to design your dream house, a crew of construction robots to build it. Want to travel to a faraway place? A robot taxi can take you to the airport, where a robotically piloted aircraft can whisk you to your destination. Ready for dinner? A few words to your robotic chef and the food will be prepared just as you wish, with inventive touches ensuring that no meal is just like a previous one—unless you want it that way, of course.
