      I don’t think so. I think they’ll either use it for very benign tasks or they’ll get a LOT of people killed.

        A Skynet funding bill is passed in the United States Congress, and the system goes online on August 4, 1997, removing human decisions from strategic defense. Skynet begins to learn rapidly and eventually becomes self-aware at 2:14 a.m., EDT, on August 29, 1997.

    People will no longer laugh at the term “military intelligence” for the obvious irony. Now, they’ll say “remember when the military tried to use artificial intelligence? ha ha what a disaster”
