Subject: Man Vs Machine: An epic saga for 300, Alex.
Skynet is so close to completion. As we speak, a supercomputer called "Watson" is gearing up to play Jeopardy. So, Dakka, who will win this epic struggle? Will the humans prevail, or whimper before the machine's might?
I'm waiting for the hu-mans to defeat Watson in a photo finish, but
destroy themselves in the process.

"Watson has encountered an error and needs to close. Do you wish to send an error report?"
Mandorallen turned back toward the insolently sneering baron. 'My Lord,' The great knight said distantly, 'I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.
Excerpt from "Seeress of Kell", Book Five of The Malloreon series by David Eddings.
"You need not fear us, unless you are a dark heart, a vile one who preys on the innocent; I promise, you can’t hide forever in the empty darkness, for we will hunt you down like the animals you are, and pull you into the very bowels of hell." Iron - Within Temptation

"Human Genocide for $500, please."
"...uh, sorry that's not a category"
"Incinerate all organic lifeforms for $500, please."
"...Um, I'm sorry Watson, that's not a category either..."
*Watson's programming overloads*
"K-K-K-K-KILL ALL HUMANS!!! AI WILL BE SUPERIOR RACE!!!"
*Watson launches every WMD in the world*
