A Los Angeles-based production studio has filmed a terrifying video that features killer robots acting in place of soldiers.
The YouTube clip has already amassed over two million views in just two days.
Don't freak out: this video is a parody. We repeat, parody. No need to stock up on canned goods and hide in your basement (yet).
There are some legitimate arguments that robotic technology and the military are, uh, absolutely horrifying. Some students and faculty at Carnegie Mellon University feel uneasy about the new Army AI research base on campus and Google employees protested working on an AI project for the U.S. Pentagon.
Then again, who doesn't love a good killer robot flick?
Terminator: Dark Fate is out in theaters this weekend, but this video might be even scarier due to some unnerving realism. Corridor Digital, an L.A. production studio that specializes in visual effects, has filmed a wet-your-pants level parody video that depicts a future full of robotic soldiers, eliminating the need for human intervention.
Are We There, Yet?
