   You guys wondered how AI could destroy the world? It could do this, but better and intentional.

      Skynet is going to have to get in line behind the idiots at the keyboard.

         Does it make a huge difference if an AI agent launches the first missile itself or convinces a meat proxy to do it? End result will be the same.

         Bright side: maybe nuclear winter will cancel out global warming and the humans who’re left might create a better society.

         A lot of leadership is just making arbitrary decisions. Vendor A or B, it doesn't really matter. AI just lets that happen much faster. The consequences are the same though.

         And all this time we've been worried about Skynet using some highly intelligent scheme to destroy humanity. LOL
