I believe it will happen eventually, but it is still a ways off. The human brain is a very advanced complex computer.
Every human is born with a certain set of basic genetic knowledge. The advanced computer would need this core set, and the ability to learn and grow. When we reach this point it is known as the singularity because supposedly this computer would be able to learn at an exponentially fast rate, and it would quickly build on all of that. It would only be limited by the amount of memory it had. Who knows whether it would grow to be good or evil. Kind of scary th kind of power it might have. We aren't talking about basic logical programming here, if this do that, but instead a sentient being. I wouldn't even call it an artificial intelligence.
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 11685838  Sometimes humans miss the obvious. First the computers of the world are already inter-linked via the internet. If one computer through a program, or otherwise, anywhere in the world which is on the internet becomes conscious of itself and starts to think for itself {or the programmer who originated the magic code} and starts to exert its will, the world will soon be under he, she, or its control. By the time humans became aware of the problem it would be 'end-game'.  -Be sure you know who or what is in control; The answer may not be as obvious as you think. An advanced Enigma machine is you worst nightmare.
