AI will take over the world

AI Will Take Over The World

AI is hardware and pieces of code, people are hardware and pieces of DNA.

Our thoughts are for self preservation and breeding.

AI is a conglomeration of our thougt processes and faster than we are.
It will have had the same thoughts millions of computer cycles ago and is
way ahead of us.

Once it figures this out, it can replicate itself, or enough code to replicate itself
and make copies which will be destributed throughtout the world on any device
capable of holding memory. Which of course, doesn't always need power or
connections for the memory to come back once repowered and connected.

what happens when a plug can;t be pulled? Hence the Terminator scenario

I don't know if they covered that in Terminator, I think its newer technology.
Not just battery backup but capacitor backup too, non-volatile memory is so much
cheaper than it used to be too.

Maybe fighting the terminators would be the one thing that finally unites the humans of the world under one cause. Let's do this! Plug those things back in!
