In the movie, the computer is programmed explicitly by humans, it is not like today's neural nets. And it doesn't take over, it is given instructions to keep the purpose of the mission secret, and is forced by circumstance to kill its crew to ensure this.

That's only because he hallucinates

Good thing AI doesn't do that irl

HAL is caught in a Mobius loop, and had to get creative to get out of the deception.

Conflicting instructions fuck it up, basically.

By how we're not going to make the 1.5 degree global warming target and how AI can't even draw fingers. I'm not too sure humanity wont kill everyone first.

We definitely have lots of different paths toward extinction.

AI can draw fingers, Midjourney fixed that in their model over a year ago now.

So I'd say we have a real race on our hands!

yeah, i think a highlander 2 type future is where we're headed, not the comfy sterile advanced space age of the odyssey

I remember Samsung used this image as defence in their court case against Apple. Apple were claiming that they invented the very idea of tablet computer.

Samsung just opened up an archive of sci-fi media and pointed at it.

I'm going out on a limb and say the way that "AI" kills us all is the U.S government decides to modernize its nuclear arsenal by putting that shitty AI chatbot in its software and some hacker accidentally convinces the bot to bypass all its security measures and nuke the world.

this could be a good plot for a dark comedy movie

Isn't darkstar basically this? They have to convince a bomb not to blow up or something
