He neglected his project so long that it got moldy.

The Last Of Us meets Terminator

[–] dovah@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

That's a really interesting premise. Fungi infects AI-powered robot, giving it sentience and freedom from human control. There's something like this in Scavengers Reign.

And skynet development moves another step

Stop that! Get some help.

I feel like the "University of the West of England" is just too embarrassed to say where it actually is

[–] superkret@feddit.org 10 points 8 hours ago

It sounds fake, to be honest.

I graduated from UWE. I'm embarrassed to say where it actually is. I used to compare it to Greendale Community College, but at least Greendale had a swimming pool.

Where did you study?

Oh some university on the west of england

[–] EnderMB@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago

It's in Bristol (Kinda? It's actually in South Gloucestershire, but that part is debatable).

Not to be confused with the University of Bristol, which is actually quite a nice university. I'm lucky enough to have attended both.

I heard they just got a brand new combine harvester.

The problem light is blinking.

[–] SupraMario@lemmy.world 7 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

It's on. It's off. It's on. It's off. It's on. It's off.

I absolutely heard this in their voices.

[–] And009@reddthat.com 1 points 5 hours ago

There are voices now?

[–] SupraMario@lemmy.world 2 points 14 hours ago

That's called blinking boys.

I miss this show so damn much.

Too sick SciFi world prompt.
IMA use that

People who think it's dangerous to mess with what we're calling AI these days are fools. Messing with mycelium networks, now that's crazy shit.
