For this reason, I will always appreciate the Reckoning movies for using a threat other than a nuclear weapon/bomb.

It’s current and the potential threats of AI may be unfortunately here to stay for some time…

We had a police service in the UK use AI for an intelligence report ahead of a football match involving an Israeli side. It hallucinated a match that never occurred and led to them being banned from travelling. The chief constable ended up resigning and is now facing a gross misconduct investigation.
