James Cameron on AI: “I warned you guys in 1984 and you didn’t listen”::undefined

IIRC the original idea for the Terminator was for it to have the appearance of a regular guy on the street, the horror arising from the fact that anyone around you could actually be an emotionless killer.

They ended up getting a 6 foot Austrian behemoth that could barely speak english. One of the greatest films ever made.

An evil 1984 Arnold Schwarzenegger with guns would be terrifying AF even if it wasn’t an AI robot from the future.
