Sir: Andrew Wyatt, envisaging a world taken over by artificial intelligence, seems to be content with the idea that some time in the near future the human race will be treated in the same way as it currently treats chimpanzees.

I do not look forward to a day when people are kept in small cages with no room to exercise and may be used for vivisection. A Brave New Future? I don't think so.
