That’s actually pretty scary. If those guys are afraid of AI, we should be.

Dune: The Butlerian Jihad, written by Brian Herbert (son of Frank Herbert) and Kevin J Anderson, is the first of the Legends of Dune trilogy of novels, set in the beginnings of the Dune universe created by Frank Herbert.

The novel is set at the beginning of Butlerian Jihad, which is a war between the thinking machines created by mankind led by Omnius, a sentient machine, and the League of Nobles, who are the last free humans.

Life imitates art.

"identified 40,000 new unthought of chemical weapons" Sounds run-of-the-mill: someone has an idea and it gets programmed. "It could also be used to develop ..." You've given a "could be". Whatever it is it will be more run-of-the-mill idea --> program. "The potential for AI is off the scales" Synonymous with "the potential of computers is "

That will be the mainstream use of AI but like everything it will be exploited and weaponized, we recently had an article posted here on FR about the Air Force’s next generation fighter being used with drones that could via AI be used to autonomously target and destroy enemy targets

1984 was supposed to be a warning. It turned out to be a procedure manual.

The Terminator was supposed to be entertainment. Will it turn out to be prophecy?
