IMHO, Andrew's point about "hundreds of years from now...", pertaining destructive artificial intelligence is flawed, due to:
1. unless we jump into a hidden block somewhere, we're definitely on our way to creating machines in the next 30 years that can out think humans in every way
2. given point 1, we tend to place an anthropomorphic role on the "destructive" nature of future "robots", forgetting that:
A) machine sentience is not required for machine-induced destruction
B) a few humans with very powerful machines can be quite destructive
