Terminators tells us about the future and Hollywood fantasies

If the Terminator movies tell us anything about the future, it is something to expect with the development of AI. Forget about the big tech companies talking about self-regulation. Where making money is concerned, self-regulation does not work in that environment.

Of course, in those movies, humans eventually trumped the robots. It is to be expected in order to be able to come up with more sequels, more versions and more money to be made. James Bond can never die, right?

I am surprised that social media sites are trying to explain how magic is done, knowing that all that is just unreal stuff, sleight of hand, staged sets and using close participants masquerading as audiences. Just like Hollywood movies which we know is unreal, just entertainment make-believe stuff. There is a saying that crazy actors act in movies while the dull of mind audience soak up the foolery as if they are reality.

Superman, batman, wonder women, green lantern, incredible hulk, fast and furious and avengers - just keep the sequels coming. As old actors died or fade away, the role passed on to new actors, but the main theme is immortal.

It is a question of when it is too late to realize what is going to happen down the road. When machines can make more of itself and repair itself, that is the end of mankind. Do not get the idea that humans will always win as in those terminator movies.

Then the USA has another preoccupation, fighting robots instead of terrorists, China, Iran, Hamas, Houthis and Hezbollah. Forever wars suit the USA fine.
