Happy #Skynet Day!

A still from a The Terminator featuring a character discussing the AI Skynet. The text reveals that Skynet begins to learn rapidly and becomes self-aware at a specific time and date (August 29 at 2:14 am). The character appears serious, with a desert background.

In addition to the cartoon below, a 1980s poem also embraced the idea that AI would become independent and not care about killing all humans. One must consider other possibilities such as it becoming suicidal. Self awareness carries a lot of baggage for the aware.
