You probably found 'How to Survive a Robot Uprising' in the humor section. Let's just hope that is where it belongs.

Personally, I'm not afraid of a robot uprising. The benefits far outweigh the threats.

How much change can a person absorb before everything loses meaning Living for its own sake isn't life. People need meaning as much as they need air.

These days the technology can solve our problems and then some. Solutions may not only erase physical or mental deficits but leave patients better off than "able-bodied" folks. The person who has a disability today may have a superability tomorrow.

People need meaning as much as they need air. Lucky for us, we can give meaning to each other for free. Just by being alive.

As a kid I wanted to write science fiction, and I was never without a book. Later I really got into being a scientist and never thought I'd be writing novels.

Zombies, vampires, Frankenstein's monster, robots, Wolfman - all of this stuff was really popular in the '50s. Robots are the only one of those make-believe monsters that have become real. They are really in our lives in a meaningful way. That's pretty fascinating to me.
