War of the Machines

Will machines take over humanity?
This dark scenario, immortalized in science fiction classics like ‘Blade Runner’, ‘I, Robot’, ‘Terminator’ and ‘The Matrix’ portrays a future where artificial intelligence (AI) rebels against its creators, seeking to either subjugate or annihilate humanity. The fear is that AI systems may one day become so advanced and autonomous that they break free from human control and forge their own paths. While these tales are the stuff of science fiction, they echo growing real-world anxieties about the rapid advancement of AI technologies. A growing chorus of scientists and AI experts is urgently advocating for more controls on the development of AI to prevent such dystopian futures from becoming our reality.
