FORT MEADE, Md. — The commander of U.S. Cyber Command has expressed worry that his robot maid could someday kill him in his sleep, Duffel Blog has learned.
Adm. Michael Rogers, who also oversees the National Security Agency, believes that the ISIS terrorist threat is not as personally terrifying as is the robot in his home, loaded with artificial intelligence and possibly learning how to murder him in myriad ways at a geometric rate.
"ARIS (Anthropomorphic Robotic Intelligence System) started as a side-project of mine when I started tinkering in my lab to see if I could design a robot that would make breakfast in the mornings," said Rogers during an interview in a concrete bunker under his home. Apparently, in the course of his experimenting, Rogers developed an intelligent humanoid robot maid not capable of not only doing domestic tasks, but also learning from its environment.
"Things went downhill when I gave her internet access," Rogers said. "While updating her OS, I joked about not needing her anymore after retirement."
