i mean at the very least if we can't invent "proper AI" we'll have the ability to accurately simulate every neuron (or gently caress every atom) in the brain with a within-America's-budget-sized supercomputer in the next few decades so we'll at least do that.

the future is either judge dredd, blade runner, or fifth element depending on how lucky we get.

judge dredd makes sense as a prequel to blade runner where the invention of space travel causes a mass exodus from earth.

at least until daylight savings time comes around, at which point all the killbots simultaneously crash

i don't trust the human military-industrial complex to be capable of building the machine menace, except by some completely unforeseen accident having nothing to do with military stuff, like mis-calibrating the melanin sensors on high-class cars so they target white people too
