AI… I’m always reminded of the great Sci-Fi short story by Ray Bradbury. “There Will Come Soft Rains” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/There_Will_Come_Soft_Rains_(short_story)
A nuclear war has killed mankind, but a house run by AI stays alive as if the humans in it were still alive.
Eventually, a windstorm drops a tree branch onto the house. This causes a fire and all kinds of mayhem that the AI can’t control.
The house burns to the ground to join humanity.
That’s the future of humans and AI. Eventually, all those nukes will be used unless they are disassembled. I don’t see that happening.
Make the most of each day.
