For When the Metal Ones Decide to Come For You

This week’s top story at The Onion is “Scientists Abandon AI Project After Seeing The Matrix.” Favorite quote: “I want no hand in creating a world where only Keanu Reeves can protect my great-grandchildren from a giant drill that plummets through the ceilings of subterranean cave dwellings.”

Good stuff, and I was once again reminded of my all-time favorite Saturday Night Live commercial parody, for Old Glory Robot Insurance. The point in that skit when Sam Waterston (the celebrity endorser) almost loses it is priceless.
