Definition and stakes

“ Such an expert system would embody the knowledge and skills of a human excavator and could substitute for human control in most circumstances. In addition, expert systems might be executed remotely by a process called "autonomous teleoperation." In this mode of operation, mining robots can be remote-controlled via transponder network links by the master LMF computer, thus reducing onboard computer complexity. ”

“ Manufacturing concerns offer complete detection systems which automatically record voices under almost any conditions by remote control. A microphone concealed in a book, a lamp, or other unsuspected place in a room, or made into a fountain pen, tie clasp, lapel button, or cuff link increases the range of these powerful wireless transmitters to a half mile. ”
