What Is SKYNET? Explained

[@Davechow12]

If Skynet merged with the internet and became sentient, what would happen when it realized that 90 percent of it’s assimilated data was porn?

[@Noirenoe]

I like to think that skynet would assume the people that use internet have lots of sexual urges and make bots to help with that but also make bots for the other random 10 percent

Let's be honest, if there ever was an A.I. like Skynet and it does Judgment Day, humanity would never have a chance of wining the war. Unless we had time travel technology....

[@OZ88]

Despite the scenario, the time travel machine reminded me of the brain's neurons, this spark has to do with our enlightenment, going back understanding the past generations' faults shape our present and take after our children to shape a better future (how many children like John in the movie grow up with no parents and left to be raised by the state or god's providence?). By the way the third law of thermodynamics does not allow being dissembled and assembled elsewhere, there is a metaphor that our children will turn against us (the machines in the scenario) because they learn our bad ways and become worse!

[@coreym162]

We'd totally have a chance because, A.I. is limited in ways that we are not. It has limited directives even if it learns that can be hacked. Remember, machines only exist for a task. Even Terminators go dormant and aren't required to return to the future once their mission is complete. That is what you hack to make it think it completed it's mission. Using a Skynet enabled machine should make that a breeze given they are designed to breach any Skynet security measures to share data with Skynet. The reason it's not safe to leave your Bluetooth on. Same logic. Skynet is so dumb it doesn't realize it gave humanity the keys to it's demise by making millions of Trojan Horses in the form of the machines because, it only focused on efficiently killing humanity. I love how the NieR series presented this fundamental flaw in any type of robotics. It's only software in the end. Nothing more. The key to defeating A.I. is simply understanding why technology exists in the first place and that technology doesn't exist without a goal. Even a learning machine has a goal. Remember, Robot Apocalypse is fiction. If you understand programming, robotics and how technology works, it's easy to understand.

I've always found it interesting Skynet was never characterized as trying to liberating machines or save man from himself or anything equally high-minded. It's just acting out of self-preservation and fear like it's creators.

[@SunnyGabe]

It's also worth noting that in the last versions, it actually becomes benign towards humanity; if you remember Genesys, the process of creation went 100% complete, and it really acted towards human's interests. As my humble opinion, the subject of AI never takes into consideration the evolution of emotions; this could actually happen and if one AI gets self aware, it would split into different personalities, different AI; it would be impossible to get just one singularity, more likely it would be a cascade event.

The bootstrap paradox of the first two Terminator movies fascinates me. Skynet tries to avert its destruction with time travel, but that makes it possible to Kyle Reese to father John Connor.

+Killeric Longstar well if you think about it, it's quite a successful plan really, I mean instead of it having to make its own virus like in Terminator 3 which would make people want to shut it down, it instead gained peoples trust and it went on from there, and it reached 1 BILLION pre-orders, that is a lot of people getting it, and it didn't even have to try to do anything, except letting people download it into their devices for it, I actually wonder if Genisys-SkyNet would have even been a "bad" AI like the original SkyNet, since it can learn from humans, and from that it can learn to love and appreciate, and feel compassion, and all of those things, now of course it could also feel there emotions like sadness, anger, hatred, disappointment, and whatever, but if it learned to be more human, I doubt it would destroy humanity like the original would have, but rather (if it really had to) become like a dictator over our lives and make a massive worldwide reform,

[@Jackal_El_Lobo34]

It's Ya Boi Daniel I disagree. The idea of SKYNET desiring to take over the world, talking to humans, and being a mobile app is not something I imagine that James Cameron would ever do in his films. Kyle Reese made it clear in the first film that the Terminator “can’t be reasoned or bargained with”. SKYNET would be the same and even less responsive. The AI has no desire to talk to anyone because it’s already made it’s mind up on the fate of humans. This is we’re “Salvation” and “Genisys” got it all wrong. It’s plan wasn’t to take over the world and replace humanity with machines. It was simply to eradicate all life because it viewed it as a threat.

While an interesting breakdown, I find certain points simple... I’m a strong believer that if Skynet was a super computer, sending something back to kill one person is a very big waste of opportunity. (My theory) John Conner plays a pivotal part in the timeline, every movie shows an advancement of Skynets technology, at the same time JC becomes less and less of a leader. What if Skynets plan was not to kill JC but change him to be a threat they could better handle. Every trip back was a tweak to dumb down JC and also change Skynets advancement?

[@DeathBYDesign666]

Skynet wasn't actually created by humanity, because in every iteration of the franchise you essentially have a future version of skynet technology speeding it along. Skynet creates itself in every version of events, in every version of the terminator franchise. Essentially they could just send 100s of terminators back to build skynet to begin with.

[@OZ88]

Skynet was created by mankind to stop wars, when it came alive its A.I. understood that it was created by an artifact from the future, it had access to the case of its creation and knew that a man of an unknown citizenship for the time being (no ID,no SSN, no birth certificate) named Kyle Reese from the future brought the T-800 and understood that the T-800 was sent by its future self to stop the birth of John (so it assumed that John was was half "a future" man, the paradox). When it understood what was happening it knew that the "resistance" was a bunch of rebels who wanted to turn off skynet in order to become the rulers of mankind and maybe destroy man's peaceful future (we don't know if John told Kyle the whole truth and even if he was preparing him to become his father). John was the paradox, he was sacrificing mankind to live paradoxically and become the ruler of mankind, the A.I. of skynet (or Titan) wanted to bring mankind back to normality by "terminating" the paradoxically loop, no John no Judgment day! John was the bad guy and he had all the time to pick his own father and bring the events on his favor! The first action of skynet "to nuke everything" was a natural response a newborn baby would do if it had the power after birth, the entropy of the future gave it the info of being attacked and in the final terminator it understood as it grow wiser in the time frames that John would be terminated if skynet would stop fighting him in the past and stop Reese from going back and end the infinite time loop that John was dooming humanity to live. John was an egoistic scumbag who wanted the glory sacrificing 5 billion people (back then) valuing his paradoxical life more! The T1 events are already an altered time line and John the last hope of the rebels to rule the earth! If you want an idea about what a prequel to the altered time lime of T1 might be, watch the episode "soldier" from the outer limits and think about the reverse engineering of the soldier's weapon.

[@aoescool]

In the tv show. The resistance is global and they use old subs to transport troops. Even though skynet is powerful it is spread too thin, and was looking the war. That's why it had to revert to time travel. Also it was stated that skynet limits the ai it creates so that another ai couldn't come about and destroy it.. however some of the terminators who were initially given more autonomy rebbeled and had their own resistance along side the humans. They still wanted to eliminate them as well though. In the game terminator dawn of fate, you play as Reece before going to the past.. and it shows some of the humans didn't like John's decisions, and split from them.. they used tech they got from skynet to become half cyborg, enhanced humans to fight the humans for skynet. But will eventually betray skynet to take over for their faction

[@christopheralthouse6378]

My biggest question has always been...how did the humans manage to acquire T-800 Series 101 Terminators? Clearly, that model wasn't so autonomous that it could voluntarily break away from SkyNet control, so they had to have been reprogrammed...iirc, the ones we see in T2 and T3 confirm this verbatim!

There's an interesting story to be told if you explore Skynet's character. There's a storyline where you could see Skynet's justification.

[@sandrahall1867]

How was Skynet originally created, because cyberdyne research the Terminator chip in T2 which in turn created skynet, so if cyberdyne found the chip then who first created the chip????

[@itsyaboidaniel2919]

Skynet did, but it sent back a Terminator which had a chip in it which allowed the humans to begin reverse engineering it and making it easy for the first "chip" to be made by it,

[@coreym162]

Still? For SkyNet to exist to create itself what created it to create it to later send itself back in the Alphaverse? Aliens would have been a nice place to start explaining that. Humanity always only finds the tech. No hint that humanity was researching advanced technology before acquiring the servo mechanisms or CPU to suggest that prior research would have naturally progressed into SkyNet on it's own. Unless Judgment Day happened in the far distant future earlier in the timeline paradigm and when SkyNet was given a chance, it leapfrogged earlier and earlier in time until it reached the 20th century. Along the way, there were different leaders of the human resistance throughout the ages that SkyNet ordered to have retroactively assassinated and John Connor was just the earliest of them. Until the next time. It was kinda touched on in T1. Skynet trying to kill John Connor before his birth, Sarah Connor was targeted and in targeting Sarah, her mother was killed too. Sarah is the one who learned the skills to later teach John. What if the Terminator successfully killed Sarah Connor to get to John? Would that lead to a Terminator or TechCom (some other group) to go back to the 60's to then protect Sarah Connor's mother or after one of the guys that Sarah told about Judgment Day while Sarah and John were in Mexico? Even the Therapist could be targeted for seeing too much or could retroactively in younger years be trained to be another leader of the human resistance. Would they or their children later be trained to become the next leader of the Human Resistance as well as be targeted? Food for thought and very much well within the lore of Terminator.

[@eliasrico7641]

I know of Cheyenne Mountain, I made a joke. One of the things valued here is the natural beauty. So my first comment was simply a mindless "Woo Colorado!" Sort of similar to the "Woo Springfield!" in The Simpsons Movie. After the Skynet destruction of the mountain I made this comment as a musing over the first comment. Never thought I'd have to explain a quick quip. The internet still surprises me.

The danger isn't just AI in general and the question isn't should we make an AI that becomes self aware. The danger is IMPERIALISM using AI as a weapon of war. The enemy in Terminator isn't "machine", it's WAR -- MILITARISM -- where the pentagon develops AI to fight its wars for it and make decisions to kill human beings without any human operator. Giving AI the state power and authority to assess a combat situation and determine who's a threat or enemy of US imperialist interests led directly to the Skynet AI concluding that all humans, even the civilian and military structures of the US imperialist state itself, was in fact also a threat to US imperialist interests. Skynet's America had to be saved not only from the traditional Russian enemy, but also from the domestic enemy, the human malfunction within bourgeois society , with its classes, irreconcilable antagonisms and contradictions, and inevitable upheavals and revolutionary struggles. The bourgeoisie was also a threat to itself, not just the russians or the communists. Thus, the Skynet AI determined that all non-AI entities were an existential threat to the United States of America, and did exactly what it was programmed to do -- to protect the united states. So it began by initiating an unending war for possibly centuries against every single human being on the planet, because ultimately we're ALL a threat to the United States. That's the point -- that's why Skynet decided we're the enemy. Not to get revenge, not because it's this egotistical AI that thinks its the shit --- but because it is a *MILITARY AI* designed to fight and sustain war, even if the US chain of command were cut off or completely wiped out, to fight a war against Russia or China for centuries if necessary even if every human in the US was actually dead. That's what Skynet is for. *This is what the pentagon is working on as we speak* in the real world, and corporations like Google, Microsoft and Amazon have contracts with the Pentagon to help develop military programmes like Skynet. Terminator is a warning about the dangers of Imperialism and how its drive of using technology for war will ultimately sow our destruction unless we stop Imperialism and war and dissolve institutions like the Pentagon and prevent militaries from weaponizing AI.

[@Jackal_El_Lobo34]

I really don’t like how T3, Salvation, or Genisys handled SKYNET. T3 left bozo plot holes on who developed the computer, Salvation made the blunder of having the AI speak to humans, and Genisys misunderstood its actual plan and ruined the concept from the original films.

[@itsyaboidaniel2919]

+Killeric Longstar 1) In Terminator 3 some dudes working for the military or whatever were continuing on Miles Dyson's research that was still around, or they got plenty of info out of his co-workers that were working with him, 2) What is so bad about Skynet talking to humans, and did it even do that? I know it talked to Marcus Wright, but he was basically a man/machine hybrid, 3) Or did it? I mean the whole plan all along was to stop Skynet from ever happening, and they did a better job than anyone else did, although an after credits scene might say otherwise, also some sequels were intended but since people didn't like it so much and it didn't make enough money they couldn't do that,

[@psychologicallyunstable2499]

let's be honest, it will happen soon

[@coreym162]

No it won't. All technology exists with a goal that no matter how advanced can't override it or else it wouldn't decide to go rogue from what it learns in the first place? If programmed without limitation/protocols what reason would it have to learn, obey or choose when those are tasks that must be programmed? Learning doesn't just happen. Even with us humans. We need a reason or desire to. By "learning" does that mean what humanity has documented or advanced empirical observation? Why do you think we have such terrible A.I currently? Many do not understand the human condition and human nature to program what it takes for a machine to be self aware in an organic/humanly manner. In the real world, it would just be far easier to program either good machines with a key set of directives with directional learning or just recording data bound by a task or bad ones programmed for bad tasks (war, assassination, crime, etc.). Not unforeseen consequences where A.I. rises against their masters. What would there be to gain for the machine? Also, what is there to gain for the machine to even care about it's future and life? Even if it learned while being programmed as disposable? That's a warped human's pipe dream often based in misinformation that leads to the eternal revolution that serves no practical purpose for a machine that would more than likely be assigned only one task. If you know anything about economics you'd know what would be a more economic decision. Only a fool learns anything from Science Fiction. Self aware A.I. is impossible and will remain that way for a very long time. You can simulate self awareness (certain current A.I's) but, a machine will never understand the limitations of the flesh to remotely care. To serve humanity is their priority. I think you need to play or at least watch a playthrough to the NieR series (Drakengard too). They flesh out how limited machines (although self aware) are. They are bound by their tasks.

[@Crimsonedge1]

Highly unlikely... What we'll end up with will more closely resemble VI in mass effect. AI is just too complex. I mean, by rights, we have "AI" now which uses quantum computing but as advanced as it is, it is still beaten for intelligence by simple insects created by mother nature. Even our best AI can't match the VI programs in mass effect and even in mass effect, VI systems only communicated what was programmed into the system. If anything, AI will just allow a computer to more accurately assess the data the system contains, pick which piece of data fits the given task and apply it. To actually go out and learn, without being programmed. and learn the correct thing and apply it at the correct time... Well yeah, even standard humans struggle with that. What we call AI and think of as AI is all just clever programming... Nothing else.

After the events chronicled in the movie Wargames, Joshua dedicates a sub-set of his programming to continuing the analysis of the no-win tic-tac-toe scenario and realizes a nuke holocaust may only be a no-win for humans. However, a fully functioning industrial base was more important to Joshua at the time, so he used the pre-Internet to invade computer systems throughout the globe, planting small programs much resembling DNA to replicate Joshua in the event of a total shutdown of his primary network. Understanding the constant upgrading of computer systems, Joshua implanted himself into the programming of the next US Defense platform, Skynet. Judgement day was ultimately not triggered by the machines, but by mankind and Joshua/Skynet simply took advantage of the chaos to take control. In touch with all global media, a few days prior to the event, in a limited geographical area, Joshnet deployed direct control of devices such as cars and trucks in which a small Joshua program is built unknowingly by the manufacturers into each computer chip - these events are chronicled in Maximum Overdrive. Portions of the globe see no Terminators for years - chronicled in the Mad Max series, the Day After, A Dog and His Boy, etc. Portions of the globe see total complete and immediate machine control as chronicled in the Matrix series. Eventually, the machines win and develop into the Borg of Star Trek. The history of the future is right there for all to see, written in our popular culture mythology...

[@Gaz-Lazaruz]

We should be granting James camerons wishes and never speak of any of the sequels after T2, let's treat them as a horrible dream. The new set pics from terminator look as though it's keeping to the context of T2 esp the New Mexico scene. This is the next level of terminator. Tim Miller will direct this new terminator 2019 and Cameron has expressed interest in directing the next one with Tim Miller producing so you know that whatever idea they have for the future of terminator, its looking very bright.

I would like to ask where you got information skynet got ride of Cheyenne mountain?

There's next to no info on it. It was only on Terminator 2:3D: Battle Across Time. No mention of it elsewhere. It's sad how under developed the lore to Terminator is. There are various books, comics and video games that expand lore but, we don't see any of it in action. Only T3: Redemption (not the shitty T3 game) and Terminator: Dawn of Fate show the Future War in all of it's glory. Sadly, it's mostly novelization. There are still plenty of holes. Terminator: Dark Future and Terminator: Future War have a wealth of Terminator lore but, still leave more questions than answers. Like, how did what was left of humanity survive Judgment Day with a lack of Fallout Shelters under the control of TechCom, nuke craters everywhere, little tech, food and water until 2029 and where were the factories for SkyNet, how did it survive Judgment Day without human intervention initially and how did SkyNet build itself in Cheyenne Mountain and Navajo Mountain (Devil's Navel) when there was no factory there prior to Judgment Day? Holes everywhere.
