Date 2001-06-15 · publication Wording attested 2001-08-10. The quoted wording also appears in the 2001 HTML edition as captured on 2001-08-10; the quotation itself is taken from MIRI’s later reprint. Role Contesting Register (kind of text) Nonfiction Engagement Engages a premise. Under the message-level rule, the passage, read with the paragraph, message or dialogue turn it belongs to, gives a reason against the premise that the concern is about robots that come to hate or rebel against humans. Scope and limits Premise addressed: The concern is about robots that come to hate or rebel against humans. Creating Friendly AI 1.0 (2001); cached text is a later MIRI reprint, not compared with a 2001 capture. Admission check, 2026-10-08: the quoted wording also appears in the 2001 HTML edition, so it is dated by that capture.

This is a common theme in many early SF stories, but it’s outright silly.” Location in source Creating Friendly AI, §4.4 Anthropomorphic Political Rebellion is Absurdity, first paragraph
