UPDATED MAY 2020 - This blog will appear monthly from now on. Today, all organizations depend on technological innovation in order to sustain their existence. Analysis of emerging technologies and identification of those technologies with the greatest potential is essential to being prepared for upcoming projects. The objective of this blog is to establish future oriented technology analysis and insights. This blog was established to provide program and project managers with information about these emerging technologies. These emerging technologies have far reaching repercussions for program and project managers. This blog will jump-start the learning process and allow program and project managers to become proactive.

| In 2017, the European Parliament proposed creating a specific legal status for robots. If enacted, the law would apply to ‘smart robots.’ The proposal, if adopted would likely give smart robots (based on early discussions/submissions) sophisticated fully autonomous robots with embedded artificial intelligence and advanced sensory capabilities a special status of what has been deemed ‘electronic persons.’ This would potentially apply to the robot’s ‘electronic personality’ in situations where robots make autonomous decisions and or otherwise interact with third parties independently.
One benefit, this would require robots (owners/designers/manufactures) responsible for all damages and for ‘making good any of those damage associated with the robot and its actions.
Concerns are growing rapidly. Hundreds of scientists, engineers, and technology strategists have expressed deep concerns. In fact, about 150 signed a letter and submitted it to the EU law makers. All in all, this is a very dangerous slope and the technology and society is not ready, nor prepared, for this currently or in the next few years!
