    Artifical Idiot still fits. The question is, why we invent an artifical idiot having too much of the real ones.

      Feelings of control. "Hey Idiot, I’m gonna need you to go ahead and come in this weekend (and every weekend from now on).

      If you could do that, yeah that would be great."

          Naw, that’s only one of the many fears:-P. One of the worst is hardly related to AI at all but “how will evil people use it to take control of the world”, the same as every other tool.:-(
