Just stick the tech into nano bots, it'll be fine.
Exactly .... Terminator AI won't build a humanoid robot with a machine gun, red eyes and rides a motorcycle ...
... it'll build a mosquito sized flying nanobot that delivers a nerve toxin that instantly kills .... and it will build billions of them that can survive extreme heat and extreme cold weather .... then build varieties that will crawl everywhere and other types that will infest the water.
But we'll be given a choice .... obey or die.
I feel like that's humanizing it too much. Why would it want us to obey it, and to what end? Wanting power like that is a very human motivation, but an AI could have completely different goals that wouldn't make sense for a naturally evolved intelligence to have, since presumably they're created to do some purpose or another.
