Honest question: do any lowish-level programmers (C, C++, etc) have this fear? I pick this group because they are close to the metal so to speak. I'm in that group and don't have this fear. To me a computer is just a super fancy pocket watch (or Turing machine) with no chance of becoming self aware.
