DESCRIPTION:
With contributions from a mix of best-selling, 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.. Humans beware. 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. As the robotic revolution continues to creep into our lives, it brings with it an impending sense of doom
"A bleak glimpse of the future" according to John M. Vizcarra. Robot Uprisings is a sci-fi anthology put together by Daniel Wilson and John Joseph Adams. The anthology is a collection of stories involving the upcoming robot uprising. However, the stories do not intersect with one another, and are not meant to convey a continuous story or backdrop of a common event. The stories themselves are cool and interesting takes on the planned pervasiveness of robots in our near future, and how our lives will be forever ruined when all of our appliances begin to think for themselves and band together to kill us all.Not. Great collection Great collection! Made me hunt for more. Amazon Customer said An Excellent Read. One of the best anthologies I've ever read. I grew up on Asimov, Ellison and Heinlein. I'm glad to see quality SF in short story format stronger than ever. Great editing.
