It sounds like something straight out of Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey.

But, in a chilling echo of the computer Hal with an artificial intelligence from the iconic film, scientists have developed future robots that are able to deceive humans and even hide from their enemies.

The team developed computer algorithms that would let a robot ‘decide’ whether it should deceive a human or another humanoid robot and gave it strategies to give it the best chance of not being found out.

But researchers say that robots that are capable of deception will be  valuable in the future, particularly when used in the military.
