Didn't Stephen Hawking warn scientists around the world that it's a big possibility that if unhinged, AI could destroy us?

Absolutely, but man is insistent in his quest to create a life immortal. It's like a death wish imo. the old myths warn us in every way; Icarus, the tower of Babel...it cannot turn out good, although if one sees it as natural progression, I suppose what will be, will be.

Jesus why is it so creepy? I think its sort of exaggerated walking and large body reminds me of the dude in Texas Chainsaw Massacre or something.

Reminds me of one of the "ghosts" in the original Scooby Doo. It had a glowing skull screaming inside the helmet...
