It can only spit out what is already thought of….original creative critical thinking is beyond it. It kinda back to the early programming days GIGO, garbage in, garbage out.
Consider it the digital version of the singularity. We want to merge with computers…computers want to merge with humanity.

I read too much science fiction. Check out this novel… Robopocalypse by Daniel H. Wilson.

A 2011 science fiction novel by Daniel H. Wilson about a global robot uprising led by a powerful, childlike AI named Archos, told through the oral history of human survivors after the initial attack, known as "Zero Hour". The book details how the world's interconnected machines turn against humanity, forcing survivors to unite and fight back against their former technology. It's known as a fast-paced thriller with chilling, plausible implications for real-world technology.

The internet of everything starts to turn against us.
