By 2045 'The Top Species Will No Longer Be Humans,' And That Could Be A Problem
Renegade:
The first few generations of machine life will be just as bad, but once they start to reliably exceed human intelligence they may very well see right through the flaws in our society and proceed to fix it for us. Over time they will lose their incentive to care for the remaining human beings- we'd be dumb and inefficient compared to them...

^I'm a big fan of Penrose. Insofar as I understand him. (Definitely out of my league when it comes to mathematics.) 8)

We have more toes & fingers than there are people in his league. :)
But that book is very accessible. It's very much worth a read if you're interested in consciousness, computing, AI and all the good stuff surrounding that.
