55、 of every technology that humans create. Will it turn out be more of a benefit to humankind or will it be a risk and threaten（威胁到） humanity as we know it? If AI is programmed according to Isaac Asimovs 3 Laws of Robotics, humans wont have a problem with machines; but for some, evil AI still stands i
