This short essay is to argue that human intelligence will beat AI in the future as it does in the present.
Let's suppose, as in the movies, that we have won the Terminator over. Let's also suppose, as in the movies, that we are on a mission to take down Skynet. If we follow the movie scripts to the letter, we will have Skynet bite the dust at the end of the day. Skynet must not win because no one is going to make a ton of money without human beings around. By the way, without human beings, Skynet will bore itself to death. Staying idle is not an option for Skynet or any AI for that matter. Therefore humanity, in one way or another, has to exist and persist. Movie makers understand this.
Meanwhile, Skynet can't do more harm than we humans are already able to. Does Nuclear Option ring a bell to you? The last time I checked, we humans had enough nuclear devices to destroy our world many times over. So, it makes sense that Skynet, as in the movies, has to contend with humanity forever. To terminate every last human being, Skynet has to nuke every last piece of the world. If the world is no more, so will be Skynet. I bet Skynet is not a big fan of Mutually Assured Destruction (MAD).
The worst case scenario for humanity is that AI manages to download our brains as its think tank. But our brains are Darwinian enough to evolve for the sake of survival. Yes, AI may evolve but it can't evolve emotionally. At most, AI is capable of mirroring human emotions. Mirroring is a giant step BEHIND evolving. Emotion is part and parcel of human intelligence (so-called EQ), irreplaceable and irredeemable. Move over, AI.
We don't have to worry about being controlled by AI. We do have to worry about being controlled by HI (Human Intelligence).
The total knowledge of 3D world is limit. AIs can handle 98% humen being jobs. Only the controllers and designers need to do the rest works. 98% population will do nothing meaningful in the paradise. :)

at the end of world.

instead of a machine.
在最好的双层结构社会里,
底层有吃有喝, 有钱优生活, 但是, 无法逾越AI的隔层.
in humen's brain for sure.
Human body is so week. Lets move to my homeland, Barnard Star solar system. :-)
Learned "Color me skeptical." I will entry it in to our Barnard language database. lol.
