On the other hand, it's pretty easy to imagine the full range of Skynet activities being done by a supercharged (but non-AGI) agentic LLM. Meanwhile, every company that can say so with a straight face is trying to become Cyberdyne Sys

They’re still meaty and they aren’t taboo everywhere! Whenever I go to the family farm I check to see if there are any fat juicy grilled rats at the local market. Alas, I’m still too squeamish to eat them, but I’m working up to it!
