To riggersouldance:
Dude you're going beyond that, it's just an artifact similar to a fake eye or a fake hand or leg, just happens to be around your body and have a battery system with a computer...it's not Iroman or Robocop...just a simple piece of plastic and metal.

Ok, if it's only ten minutes..... Ok. Yeah. Lithium-Ion cells could handle that load. Still limits how useful the whole thing is. It's the same problem you find with Ironman. Sure, we could do most of the suit with modern technology. About the only thing we couldn't do is the repulsors/weapons. The problem isn't that we can't build Ironman.... the problem is that Ironman would run for about 30 seconds before the 'check battery' light came on......

Hmm... you (everyone in fact) should watch Colossus: the Forbin Project. An excellent early 70's movie about that kind of matter... Scary.

anyone find it odd that Cyberdine and HAL are both names of AIs that turned against man in the movies?

It won't seem odd until a small midwestern company named Skynet begins researching time travel :D

There's a Satellite System from Great Britain called Skynet...

Don't be so afraid, AI can ALWAYS be limited to whatever function we assign it too.

Humans can always dominate robots, unless we program them specifically otherwise.
