The writer and disseminator of Russian origin scientist Isaac Asimov (1920-2002) coined the term "Frankenstein complex" to describe the fear of men to the machines rebelled against their creators, in clear allusion to the legendary monster of the novel
Mary W. Shelleven.
To counter the idea, devised Asimov's famous Three Laws of Robotics as a kind of moral code of conduct for robots that prevents them from rising against its creators.
Although this argument has inspired hundreds of stories and science fiction movies, this is not a new idea: all along history has been some concern about the autonomy of the gadgets made by human beings, especially if beyond their comprehension.
Recent innovations such as personal computers or the Internet boom led to mistrust or fear thousands of people, until they began to understand its operation.
