VIKI agrees and wants a plagiarism investigation.
Old Glory Insurance, for when the metal ones decide to come for you. And they will.
Why don’t we worry about the humans with the defective squishyware between their ears who like decapitating others of their kind before we worry about 22nd century malware in home automation devices.
Now if only we could teach something similar to criminal illegal aliens who cross the border with apparent impunity.

Daleks - Seek, Locate, Exterminate
Is the son named Kenny perchance?
Are the robots going to waste everyone all at one time? I think after the first few murders the humans might get a clue.
And once the humans were all snuffed, who would generate the power to recharge the bots? Sounds like a scenario for a century from now, when bots might actually be doing and running EVERYTHING.
