You're already pre-programmed to obey your robot overlords

Someday soon, we may be faced with the real possibility of reporting to a robot boss, with no human overseer in sight. What's even more unsettling is that we're likely already programmed to obey.

A study carried out at the University of Manitoba's Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) Lab discovered that subjects are willing to obey a robot's commands, even when they thought these commands were unreasonable. The test consisted of an 80-minute series of tasks, designed to be more and more frustrating as time went on. Half of the test subjects were seated in a room with a human "boss" while the other half were greeted by a child-like NAO robot.
