As an artificial intelligence researcher, I often come across the idea that many  people are afraid of what AI might bring . It’s perhaps unsurprising, given both history and the entertainment industry, that  we might be afraid  of a cybernetic takeover that forces us to live locked away, “Matrix”-like, as  some sort of human battery .

The most innocent of things can sound tawdry and bizarre when certain facts and details are omitted. Here’s a perfect example: I accidentally bit my dog Gulliver’s  tongue  recently. Now you may be asking yourself what I was doing with his tongue in my mouth to begin with. But I would submit that that is perhaps a better question for Gulliver, since he’s the one that violated my busily masticating maw by inserting that long, thin, delicatessen-slice muscle of his while I was simply enjoying a bite of a very banal bagel. Shocked by the feel of human teeth chomping down on his tongue, he
