Humans would begin to rely less on their own knowledge and become more dependent on machines. For instance, why hire a human that has to go through successions of stunningly complex patterns of interconnection among brain cells and neurotransmitters to absorb information. When you can purchase a machine that able perform all of the same duties. Kurzweil also states that within several decades, machines will exhibit the full range of human intellect emotions and skills ranging from musical and other creative aptitudes to physical movement.

Irobot is a good example of how this kind of machinery can be harmful to mankind. In this movie robots were sold to the society to help out with each human specific daily tasks. After some time the robots began to exhibit human like emotion which then turn to anger and began to attack their owners even killing human because even thought they were programmed to do so.
