Engineering - July 2006

First question: Has robotics advanced far enought to create a artificial inteligence superior to the human race and will it ever happen that we will be ruled by androids and machines ? Will they ever develop a fully functional artificial brain ?
Second question: Will the human race in the far future be incorporated and eventually become half-human half machine at the rate at which bionics and artificial parts are added to our bodies ?
Third question: Will there ever be a fully functional, fully aware human like android/robot like Sonny on I Robot ?
Fourth question: Why do people have sexual fantasies about robots and machines ? Its even a known fetish, known as ASFR or Technosexuality. Are there any such sites on the internet ?

At present we are using space for everything from crop surveys to traffic patterns. I'd like to know why the same technology can't be used to improve communications at a minimum cost?
