I'm starting to believe in the Skynet scenario. The big badass AI being unleashed by those who run the world's technology. The problem is once we reach Singularity, namely when the robots have out-evolved us, eg. smarter than us to a point we have no control over them, then we're pretty much screwed. We won't be able to shut them down.nevertheless, the overall trend remains the same.... the mega techs will take over the entire economy.
Also consider Elon Musk's NeuraLink, where he wants to make humans into robots. This is like the scene from the Matrix movie. Remember when Neil was taken out of the matrix? He had lines hooked up to the holes in his back. Musk claims that this is needed to compete with AI so to speak, but I think it actually helps AI more than otherwise. What was once thought as some crazy sci-fi will be staring us right in the face in the not-too-distant future.
