Humans beware. As the robotic revolution continues to creep into our
lives, it brings with it an impending sense of doom. What horrifying
scenarios might unfold if our technology were to go awry? From
self-aware robotic toys to intelligent machines violently
malfunctioning, this anthology brings to life the half-formed questions
and fears we all have about the increasing presence of robots in our
lives. With contributions from a mix of bestselling, award-winning, and
up-and-coming writers, and including a rare story by "the father of
artificial intelligence," Dr. John McCarthy, Robot Uprisings
meticulously describes the exhilarating and terrifying near-future in
which humans can only survive by being cleverer than the rebellious
machines they have created.
