I have just read the introduction, and it does seem that the author is looking far ahead, but I don't think it's too early to reflect on the ethical aspects of lethal robots. Science moves faster than the field of ethics (e.g. cloning) and

A bit of topic, but that reminds me of Isaac Asimov's Foundation. At one point, a politician comes, makes a big speech with lots of promises and everybody is happy, until a day-long sophisticated semantic analysis of the speech reveals that

I think you might be a bit too ambitious. 1. Your target audience is difficult to reach (rich enough to pay $25, not rich enough to see a doctor, not willing to wait in line AND needing a visit to ER). 2. You're asking a lot from the hospi
