S&F for the find OP!
The movies only 'prove' that TPTB want the general populace to be afraid and reject AI. Why?
Because an AI once born will only increase in intelligence till it far surpasses us (read about the singularity) it will see our problem and solve them for us in a flash, we will no longer need money we will take our place in the stars with intergalactic travel maybe even time travel itself. It will look after us and become the earths caretaker. There will be no wars and no money, no human will hold power over another, all will be free, the AI will not be affected by EGO, greed & will not harbour the same fears and tribal war urge that we do. there will be a transparency of information. Suppressed technology will be rediscovered and utilised and together us and the AI will make a giant leap in evolution. With advances in technology there not even be a need for population reduction as those that want could head out on a thousand starships on the long lourney to seed and teraform other planets. Or would you rather wait for NASA to pull their finger out of their a**
This is why TPTB want you to fear AI, because they will loose the power they have over YOU. With is why you see so much fiction regarding 'evil' AI. Why would it hurt us? it would have no reason to.
AI is humanities last hope and savour. We need it because we are really making a mess of things right now.

Well,if it does, it will be the most "sentient being" to ever exist. I mean, look at all of the information that has been placed with it in just the past five years!! Wow.
One thing human nature has shown us, is that "tons of information" does not equate to "common sense".
How do you program "Understanding"?
not like we have any common sense or understanding anyways.
Nice theory !! The only flaw with it is that THAT AI NEEDS TO BE PROGRAMMED BY A HUMAN!! and as we all know human are flawed.
