Jay Dyer and Jay Weidner delve into the chilling universe of the Terminator films, where a powerful A.I. dominates the future of Earth. Before this A.I. can assert its control over humanity, it needs to wipe out a significant portion of the population. However, a lone hero stands in its path, prompting the A.I. to take drastic measures. It sends a cybernetic assassin back in time to eliminate this key figure before he can discover his destiny. These films may reflect the foresight of DARPA engineers who recognized the potential threats posed by self-aware A.I. and its control over advanced weaponry. This discussion between Dyer and Weidner was originally streamed on August 28, 2017.
