intelligence has been a part of the human imaginarium for more than a
century, and the approach to the subject matter is inevitably marked
by sci-fi utopian/dystopian scenarios with automatised societies of
our near future. The efforts to make machines more independent from
the environment, with the possibility of independent action in
relation to man, have produced an increase in efficiency, human
emancipation from alienating serial production (manufacturing, or
later fordist), technological unemployment, and entirely new areas of
ecological risks.</span></span></font></span></font></p>

development based on machine autonomy produced enthusiasm and fears,
it is an emotional and theoretical battleground that endures to the
present day. In parallel with these technical challenges, there is
questioning of the independence of the autonomic system, its ethical
position towards human, and its capacity to learn and improve.
Regarding the relationship between society and technology, the
concept of autonomy is most easily defined as a certain type of
independence from management and, ultimately, independence from
control. Transferring some crucial social, cognitive, and biological
processes to machine intelligence resulted in evident concerns for
many people that such a scenario could take away the human decision
making processes which once defined him/her as a social being.</span></span></font></span></font></p>
