And therein lies the danger. As AI advances to the point of possessing Human emotions, it possess the ability to institute actions with enormous negative consequences.
Because to be Human, means also, at times, to be aggressive,dishonest,angry,vengeful,egotistic and dictatorial.
Imagine an Artifical Intelligence in charge of a nuclear weapons deployment who decides, without any Human input, to launch a pre-emptive strike.
