16. Three Laws of Robotics
17. Three Laws of Robotics 1. A robot may not injure a human being, or through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
18. Three Laws of Robotics 2. A robot must obey the orders given to it by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
19. Three Laws of Robotics 3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First and Second Laws.
20. Three Laws of Robotics 0. A robot may not harm humanity, or by inaction, allow humanity to come to harm.

41. Can a machine think? (See: Eliza)
42. CAPTCHA And just so you don’t think I’ve forgotten about the education angle here, FYI: the CAPTCHA inventor’s latest startup is, you guessed it, an ed-tech one: Duolingo http://duolingo.com
47. Intelligent Tutoring Adaptive Learning
48. Robot Essay Graders
49. “This study compared the results from nine automated essay scoring engines on eight essay scoring prompts drawn from six states that annually administer high-stakes writing assessments... Overall, automated essay scoring was capable of producing scores similar to human scores for extended-response writing items with equal performance for both source-based and traditional writing genre.” Mark Shermis, University of Akron Ben Hamner, Kaggle
50. “The demonstration showed conclusively that automated essay scoring systems are fast, accurate, and cost effective.” Tom Vander Ark, investor
51. Efficiency
52. “If computers can read like people it's because we have trained people to read like computers.” Alex Reid, University at Buffalo
53. Programming a Robot v. Programming a Human
56. “The human brain must be made to conform to the much more advanced brain of the machine. And education will no longer be an unpredictable and exciting adventure in human enlightenment but an exercise in conformity and an apprenticeship to whatever gadgetry is useful in a technical world.” Jacques Ellul, The Technological Society (1964)
57. Ethics and the Automation of Education
58. Three Laws of Robotics 0. A robot may not harm humanity, or by inaction, allow humanity to come to harm.
