J. Presper Eckert, co-inventor of ENIAC and vice president of the UNIVAC division of the Sperry Rand Corporation, begins by asking the question, “Will machines ever run man?” Eckert comments, “If we are able to make a machine which is capable of emulating human thinking and is capable of self-reproduction. I hope that the man who does this has the presence of mind to kick the plug out of the socket before he starts running.”
