I refer the poster to the remarks I made above.
As they openly stated at the UN (ref. Rio+5), “Because this is the world that we want.”
Excerpt from THE DENVER POST, 21st of May 2010:
No panic, that Isn’t the first sign of the end of the world, is it?
No, “they” are very beloved. You will soon be fond of “them”.
Hear “them” say (again and again):
“Don’t worry about us, we’re just a large, unstoppable army of friendly machines.”

Certainly lovable and desperate for your understanding and sympathy.
But easy to disable/disassemble, if they go out of control. Overrides are a sine qua nonto any machine, PLEASE! (as lovable as they are)
Some words to the picture and the adaptation of humans and machines:
The similarity between humans and machines is not random. Look at the picture (again):
“Don’t worry about us, we’re just a large, unstoppable army of friendly machines.” 
Remember that the next time your car, an airplane, or nuclear generating station goes out of control. You can always just disassemble it, so don’t worry. Well, of course in the case of androids, I suspect it would take a secret pass code to stop it from defending itself against hacking into it by the unruly horde of terrorists - You. Are you going to have the password? - No.
No, not me, but there always will be some some “terrorist” who can do a mission impossible and get the code. There are no full proof systems, especially in an “open” society. Even an anarchic disillusioned general, or president can achieve this purpose. All the U.S political assassinations to date attest to this. There simply is not complete compliance, even the author of this OP presents a 20/80 split. That’s far more generous then 95/05. Even a 1% chance must offer hope. I stand fast in the irresoluteness of this issue.
Why do You think that in this late day and age, a North Korean or Syrian madman appears to present such a formidable challenge? Because the behemoth can be severely disabled by the discovery of a very much hidden, yet present achilles heel. Granted Goliath has an extreme monopoly on intelligence, but intelligence is not full proof.
The presentation of this as such, seems to side with David, yet,the alternative of a fallen Goliath, at this stage, presents a rather horrible scenario, much worse than what occurred at the time of the decline and fall of the Roman Empire. Unbelievable and monstrous anti civilization may betake the world, and all the comfort zones will not offer a shred of sympathetic hearing, except that offered by a hideous and cruel anti christ.
Pray, be it, that the orgiastic phenomenon of the daemon may not prevail. It has happened in key times in the history of the world, and may not, machines in service of evil overcome those of the good. Both , armies of robots of good and evil, may be needed, in the service of humankind, and the apparent notion that it may merely be a struggle consisting of good humans against the evil machines is a misconstrued fallacy.
Finally the thread has been reduced to science fiction where it belongs.
It’s worth pointing out that in none of the above examples - even though they are ridiculous, do machines ever completely replace humans.
Tools are useless without people.
As I said before, I have never said to give up. This is a question pertaining to probability. 1% is not a high probability.
And where in this world are you going to find an “open society”??? In the “Land of the Blind”?
Human beings build machines, machines produce things and other machines. The machines do that for human beings and instead of human beings and other living beings (for example: horses, oxen etc.). Those human beings who did the same before the machines began to do it did not want to be replaced as workers / wage earners, but as consumers they wanted to be replaced. And what happened? Replacement! The currently workers / wage earners do not want to be replaced, but as consumers they want to be replaced. And what happens? Replacement! This will not change until the completely replacement of human workers / wage earners by machines. So the probability is very high that all human beings will be completely replaced by machines. I have been estimating that that probability is about 80% (see here, here, here, here, here, here, and here).
Machines can do human works very much better, they are cheaper, they can be better controlled as human beings (this doesn’t mean that machines can be forever totally controlled). Again: The probability is about 80% that machines will completely replace all human beings.
As machines become less controlled it may have the effect of forcing humans to become smarter, maybe more human, perhaps less machine like, a condition they often seem forced to emulate when programmed by rules, bureaucracy, protocols, dogma, etc, which may be difficult or impossible to escape from.
The way things stand now he’s the biggest fuck up this planet ever faced with no redeeming features that I can see. Just the opposite, a creature of lies, duplicity, hypocrisy all centered in what is considered expedient for the moment at the expense of everything else, the future most of all.
In this universe if you don’t have a future it’s because you didn’t pass the test which may not be such an unusual occurrence for other “intelligent” life forms out there. You came, you saw, you failed…and then you disappeared just as important postmortem as you were prebirth and just as silent. But maybe it won’t happen if a combination of genetics and electronics becomes the next step in evolution. One that replaces expediences with priorities and looks to the future in the context of NOW since literally there is no other way to commit to what follows intelligently.
How do we inseminate into the species as a whole the genius it takes to consistently create multiple futures and prove that it has beaten the odds?
Certainly, not by a determined chain of causally linked events, the sorry plight of a very large portion of the population at the present time. Maybe expanding the mind through imagination. I think virtual reality manufactured by the type of life-scope viewers which make ‘being there’ , virtually undistinguishable from the real thing. Maybe virtual reality has a function, nevertheless, of manufacturing an pseudo alternate world to alleviate the apparent treadmill of an existence most people find themselves in nowadays. There is no virtual limit to this kind of technology, however, entertainment must never be confused with reality. Rather a virtual necessity to find alternatives.
HELP the rate of population increase is declining.

Oh the Humanity!
FYI

May …, yes, but currently it is quite the contrary: the average IQ of the world population is sinking, declining.
Maybe …, yes, but it depends on what „human“ really means, what „human“ really is, what a „human being“ really is. „Human“ is a ambiguous word, as you probably know.
Perhaps …, yes, but it depends on what „machine“ and especially „machine like“ in connection with „human being“ really mean. Is a human being who is less machine like really better than a human being who is more machine like? Or is quite the contrary right?
The delusional thoughts of transhumanists goes something on the lines of this.
Technological innovation replacing our entire existence and being is progress, right? 
That’s a ‘good’ thing, right?
Becoming a biological obsolete is progress once civilization merges with machine, right?
Sighs
I don’t see why you have to increment the same sentence by a few more words when I wrote a lot more than that!
First of all I’m not talking machines in their current state; we were talking about the consequences of machine intelligence in the future accord to your OP.
Anyways this argument “the average IQ of the world population is sinking” is completely misleading. It may be sinking! Why is it sinking? You have more poor and deprived people on the planet who are illiterate or semi-illiterate with more on the way. Of course the average IQ relative to how it’s measured, will go down. “Average” is a statistic which defines nothing…and you know what they say about statistics. I have yet to meet the average person as defined by a statistic.
Every civilization has it’s own ideals as to what is human and what denotes it. Most of those have much in common. Unfortunately we most often fail to become that. But it’s not as if we don’t have a fairly good idea of what we expect from ourselves and the limitations of our own psychology. This incessant question as to what Human really is or means puts philosophy itself on the IQ casuality list.
That depends on both the future of humans and the future of machines and their, I would say, probable integration. In short, we don’t know what it “really means” (that phrase again) until we get there. That’s the nature of intelligence which is always half blind walking into the future. How can it be otherwise?
So i gather, Monad is in the ‘indeterminate column’?, as well?
What does “indeterminate” mean?
