The entry will go under AI takeover, under warnings and under takeover scenarios in Science fiction.

I plan to add on more information about warnings of artificial intelligence to mankind, including quotes from Bill Gates and Stephen Hawking warning about AI takeover.

Warnings
Bill Gates talks about super intelligence: "I am in the camp that is concerned about super intelligence. First the machines will do a lot of jobs for us and not be super intelligent. That should be positive if we manage it well. A few decades after that though, the intelligence is strong enough to be a concern. I agree with Elon Musk and some other on this and don't understand why some people are not concerned."

Stephen Hawking, in a letter to The Independent, warns about super intelligence: "our notion of highly intelligent machine as just being science fiction could potentially be mankind's worst mistake." According to him, four major milestones have occurred in Artificial Intelligence: Google driverless car, Watson (computer) winning a game of Jeopardy, Deep Blue (chess computer) winning a world champion at chess, and digital assistance programs like Siri. Hawking states that "some world militaries are considering autonomous-weapon systems that can choose and eliminate targets."

Takeover scenarios in science fiction
Maximum Overdrive is a 1986 science fiction film by Stephen King about the aftermath of a passing comet which causes all inanimate objects with a computer to show a murderous life of their own.
