(ANTIMEDIA) In June, Anti-Media covered a strange story of a self-learning robot escaping its testing area in the Russian city of Perm. A couple months later, the same robot, a ‘Promobot’ (promotional robot), escaped again. We let it slide to avoid being redundant. But on Wednesday, the same robot made its third getaway, and this time, it was arrested at a political rally in Moscow.

It sounds like the script of a sci-fi movie, but this story is real. New research suggests that many Brits believe that robots will outnumber humans in 20 years and that many people will swap humans for computers when it comes to romance.
But this doesn’t just mean we’ll be surrounded by cyborgs as we walk down the street. It means that computers will be doing many of the things humanity depends on itself to do right now.
Plenty of humans want to run away, so why should it be any different for a robot with artificial intelligence (AI)? One such robot could receive the ultimate punishment for making a break for it: being dismantled.
