How to Survive a Robot Uprising: Tips on Defending Yourself Against the Coming Rebellion is a semi-satirical book by Daniel Wilson published in November 2005.
The book gives tongue-in-cheek advice on how one can survive if robots get too smart and rebel against the human race. How to Survive a Robot Uprisingis partially based on scientific fact, and is an example of deadpan humor.
Wired magazine gave it a 2006 Rave Award, calling it "equal parts sci-fi send-up and technical primer".
Wilson received a Ph.D. in Robotics from Carnegie Mellon University's Robotics Institute in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
In the summer of 2005, Paramount Pictures optioned film rights to the book and hired Thomas Lennon and Robert Ben Garant (both members of the State comedy troupe and co-creators of the Reno 911! television series) to write a script based on the book. On April 26th, 2006 comedian Mike Myers signed with Paramount to star in the 2008 movie adaptation.
