If you have ever watched any of the Terminator movies especially the first one than you would be familiar with the first Cybernetic Organism (Cyborg). Living tissue over a robotic endoskeleton. The T-800 was virtually indestructible unless of course caught in a compactor.

2. Biotechnology
3. Robotics
Some of the most brilliant minds of our time have given mankind fair warning when it comes to the development of AI. Although one could argue that there are many benefits the thought of some powerful system becoming "Self-Aware" would pose frightening prospects for us all.
