@Breumaster,

A long time ago, I wrote about a hierarchy of user interfaces (UI) under a different venue than IMDb. This is a summary from what I remember. This is not directly related to your poll, but I thought you and others may find this interesting.

Fully User Symbiotic - Device directly interacts with the host / user and is implanted.

Partially User Symbiotic - Device directly interacts with the host / user and is not implanted.

User Intuitive - Device anticipates what the user wants to do and performs that actions that the user desires.

User Friendly - Device works in a way that is easy for user interaction.

User Unfriendly - Device works in a way that is difficult for user interaction.

User Hostile - Device actively works against the interests of the user.

User Lethal - Interacting with the device may lead to the death of the user.

Just going to suggest this because after reading title immediately thought of Glados from Portal (2007).

It is a video game, not a movie but if you are not committed to movie only then this AI needs to be included.

Breumaster,

For your consideration:

Colossus from Colossus: The Forbin Project (1970)

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0064177/plotsummary

• Forbin is the designer of an incredibly sophisticated computer [Colossus] that will run all of America's nuclear defenses. Shortly after being turned on, it detects the existence of Guardian, the Soviet counterpart, previously unknown to US Planners. Both computers insist that they be linked, and after taking safeguards to preserve confidential material, each side agrees to allow it. As soon as the link is established the two become a new Super computer and threaten the world with the immediate launch of nuclear weapons if they are detached. Colossus begins to give its plans for the management of the world under its guidance. Forbin and the other scientists form a technological resistance to Colossus which must operate underground.

Artificially intelligent mechanical arms developed by Dr. Octavius in Spider-Man 2 (2004)

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0316654/plotsummary

• Peter Parker's having a rough time. His double life as the super hero Spider-Man is having a devastating impact on his civilian life. Things are so bad he declares that he's quitting and never putting on the suit again. However, his sense of duty forces him to become a hero again when the brilliant scientist Dr. Otto Octavius is transformed in an accident and becomes Dr. Octopus. With four metal tentacles sticking out of his back, he'll prove to be a more than worthy opponent for Spider-Man.

Hi, Breumaster. The list item description for The Matrix, should be the at least following or something else entirely:

The Architect and its subroutines (Agent Smith copies)

Now, that is grammatically correct, but it may not capture well the spirit of the adversaries at hand in the saga, plus the Architect's gender is most likely as masculine. I would suggest the following:

The System (the Machines and the Architect), and rogue retired Programs, notably Smith

This is due to the Machine civilization being so multifaceted. The movies do not make it abundantly clear what the exact nature of the relationship between the Machines and the Architect is, as to whether one is subordinate to the other, they have mutual terms of association or their relationship is more complex. For all we know, the Architect, the Oracle, maybe some other subroutines and the various actual robotic beings (the literal deus ex machina) outside of the Matrix serve on some kind of committee that allows for a cohesive management of the affairs inside and outside the Matrix (such as alike command of Agents and Sentinels), in regards to the war with (or enslavement of) humanity, whereby the Architect had long ago sold the Machines a bill of goods as to the most appropriate ways to manage the human civilization and, to a lesser extent, programs that move between the Matrix and other "places" wherever programs can exist. Since they are AI, they can arrive at consensuses and decisions much faster than people, and they probably are better at learning from mistakes.

Artificial Intelligence was that named first time in 1956:

So I would keep out all movies made before.

'Good poll, Breu! Since seeing 'The Social Dilemma' and kind of fact-checking it, AI does indeed concern me but only if human beings don't change the ways it's being programmed and used. I guess that means I'd vote for social media AI, although the documentary ultimately pins a lot of the blame on capitalism (or capitalism without enough regulation of social media). I guess my vote would still belong there, though. Anyway, good poll. : )

May I suggest a few edits?

Since science fiction movies began to show fantasies about artificial intelligence in general, many have been critical of it.
What if an artificial "brain" develops too fast or has a corrupted file that acts like a sleeper - with delay! What if your smart robot turns to murder? What if a complete networked structure turns

against you?

There have been many ideas about bad artificial intelligences. Please remember the persons in the movies, affected by these artificial intelligences in their specific situations.

Which of these AIs seem to be the meanest nightmare?

Scare us here. ( -- I love this!)

Congratulations Breu.
