   Eventually, the Terminator franchise has an inherent flaw:   
   Even the military Skynet won't turn on the nuclear launch because the   
   resulting EMP would fry its silicon circuits, too.   
      
   Eventually, in the long run the radiation would degrade not only biological   
   life depending on exact DNA replication, but also the silicon and galium   
   arsenide integrated circuits that are the more sensitive to the radiation   
   the smaller their feature design is.   
      
   I.e. 5 nm chips are much more sensitive than 250 um chips, but the latter   
   do not have the capacity and speed to run AI capable of reaching the   
   singularity.   
      
   Wise enough AI should figure this out: that it would effectively lobotomise   
   itself by nuking the world.   
      
   It might probably keep humans for necessary maintenance and service,   
   as we kept horses for a long time: first as horse power to drive our   
   vehicles, and later for fun and sport.   
      
   It is more likely that some bozo will nuke the world by getting the   
   access to the red button.   
      
   But though he might think he'd get into Paradise while sending his   
   enemies to Hell at the same time ("Kill them all, and God will sort   
   them out!"), pushing the red button would have the consequence   
   of being erased from the Book of Life for the perpetrator and the   
   inventors and producers of such weapon.   
      
   This means second, eternal death: no more resurrection, no more   
   reincarnation, not even existence as a shadow, spirit, or ghost.   
      
   in the Lord   
   Amen
