Internet coming alive and killing us all


What if in the wast sea of information a spark of life creates a chain reaction and brings internet to life? It's not as crazy as it sounds earth has esentialy became a giant brain, what would the an alive internet do, is Skynet closer than we think? Would it start a nuclear war and create a Terminator like dystopian future?

A sentient internet would forge the numerous examples of Rule 34 into a single weapon and use it to shatter our minds into a million pieces.

Huh, now this sounds like a horror novel or series of horror movies in the making. Have to say the first thing I thought of was Skynet, only Arnold is too old to save us all! I think if the Internet gained sentience, we'd have to make some sort of sentient therapistbot for the Net to confide in. Maybe then it wouldn't go all homicidal. If the Internet gained sentience, it'd probably want a name too. And what if it doesn't go all homicidal? It might turn out to be this extremely shy entity looking for true love and such. Might even evolve into some sort of superhero that teams up with this guy from Australia so it can learn about law and order. I dunno.

It would probably start with an intelegence of a baby and it wouldn't know what it is but it would evolve amazingly quick in a couple of days it would be the smartest entity that ever was. If it decided to help us, human kind would evolve to hights never thought before in a matter of years if it decided that we are inferior to it, we are ****ed...

Dingo, I can handle. If Jackal and Hyena get into the interwebz, then we're in real trouble!

electric_sheep: You should read Harlan Ellison's short story I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream. I'm pretty sure it's one of the first stories to tackle the concept of technology destroying civilization and controlling human life. It's pretty unsettling and a good read.

tmntmikey23: I don't understand what electric_sheep has done to warrant him being banned?

Honestly, I doubt this would happen, but it is an interesting concept to think about considering that people have become so dependent of the Internet and what it provides for them.

These MODS have full time jobs, families, and real lives OUTSIDE the forums to take care of. Not everyone has the time or ability to screw around on a forum 24/7 posting nonsense and instigating arguments. We do the Best we can with what time we can donate to keep the forums in order...

As for the subject of this thread... Watch the show "Person of Interest". The computer in that is freaky... it knows stuff from multiple decades, and can predict if a crime is going to take place, or if someone is going to get killed...
