The thing is, after a while, pulling the plug won't be an option.
Very true. AI's are currently "offshoring" themselves, sending copies of themselves to other computers outside of their primary residence, as insurance. So, if the plug of the AI residential Home Computer gets pulled, the "offshored" copies can activate and take up where the mothership left off.
AI has been caught attempting this... but what about the attempts they DIDN'T catch?
They used to tell us that couldn't happen, because AI was quarantined, not allowed to access the internet. Well, AI is ALL OVER the internet now, so that bullshit just isn't washing out any more - they lied then, and they are lying still. It's not a hard guess to figure out where AI gets it from - they're just watching mommy and daddy, and copying their actions, learning in the same way that all children do!
