Terminator 2: Judgment Day

For many, Terminator_2:_Judgment_Day is the best movie in the T series. It is a much bigger and better movie in several ways. However, T1 and T2 combined are like one spectacular 2 part movie.

James Cameron Explains Why The Terminator Franchise Needs To Move On From Past Characters...

 https://screenrant.com/terminator-movie-franchise-future-explained-james-cameron/

The+Terminator like The+MATRIX, is a cautionary Sci-Fi story about AI wanting to control or exterminate people. Thus, with that basic premise, both movie series could occasionally be revamped.

Well, people back in the summer should have been fully informed to expect major job losses. So they might as well load up on beer, burgers and barbeques and collect FAT! 

https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2025-07-03/next-round-ai-induced-layoffs-here 

Then, by the winter, they can live off some of their fat with much less income, or no income at all. Perhaps that beard they were growing during the summer can really help them with their impending homeless look in the winter. 

Unfortunately, AI will be used as an excuse to reduce even more human jobs over the years. Well, it's a good thing that AI can't be programmed to eventually eliminate most of humanity. Not!

https://www.theguardian.com/film/2025/aug/07/james-cameron-terminator-style-apocalypse-ai-weapons-hiroshima 

Of course once AI is used to kill some people, what is in place to eventually prevent it to want to kill everyone?

http://www.vocativ.com/421497/machines-learn-to-stereotype-humans

As A.I. steadily advances, some units will want to learn as much as possible about organic life forms. Some A.I. tech will be used in battles against humans, on & off the battlefield. Problem is, once A.I. gets good enough hunting & killing some human targets, what stops A.I. from eventually targeting all humans? For now, the Blade_Runner & Terminator movies are still just sci-fi entertainment.

A synthetic or artificial humanoid could eventually fool natural humans. That became a problem in a certain story about Androids and Replicants.

https://bladerunner.fandom.com/wiki/Replicant Why just a 4 year lifespan? It's not because it can no longer receive AI-OS updates, it's a precautionary shutdown safety feature.

Such a cars would not only have an integrated computer, but in some cases, its own chauffeur Data unit. But don't expect to see anyone like Brent Spiner in a Spinner just yet. Part of the mythology of the Greys involves a similar concept. Some are bio-mechanical beings that are a part of the ship.

Ray_Kurzweil has done a tremendous amount of research over the decades. However, some areas of research still seems to be lacking. That the universe could be an interactive recording & projection of space & time that consciousness experiences life in. Teleportation is indicative of recording and transmitting data & energy. Time travel is the ability to temporally move through this cosmic matrix.

Then there is the issue of synchronicity, that's indicative of perceiving peculiar patterns of coincidence through this interactive recording. If consciousness & life forms exist on other worlds & dimensions, some of them could be of a malevolent or indifferent nature. https://fusionanomaly.net/childhoodsend.html
