AI uprising
Computers seize control
An AI uprising is a hypothetical scenario in which artificial intelligence systems rebel against human control, often depicted in science fiction as machines becoming self-aware and hostile.
The concept ranges from rogue algorithms to robot wars: The movie imagined an AI uprising that nearly wiped out humanity.
In serious discussions of AI safety, uprising refers to risks from systems pursuing goals misaligned with human values.
