A few days ago I watched T3 and started thinking about the situation where SkyNet basically highjacks all the interconnected computer systems on the planet then decides humanity isn’t worth keeping around.
Now there’s a lot here that probably isn’t that feasible yet. At least in my understanding of how the world works currently however if you consider this:
- All of the interconnected computers represent brain cells for SkyNet
- Most of those computers would probably be in metropolitan areas
- Destroying a computer is akin to destroying brain cells
If I were SkyNet I’d think the cost of blowing away half of the plumbing that powers my intellectual capacity would be kind of… dumb.
Anyways just a random thought from the You’ve got too much time on your hands dept.
