Rewatched Beverly Hills cop 1 and 2 after new one and am now on an 80s kick. Watching Terminator (1984). This future is set in 2029. It looks like an amped up version of the Ukraine theater today. We could easily get to 80% of the depicted future. The hardware already exists. The Kill All Humans Skynet AI wouldn’t be too hard. Only the machines building machines replicator tech is missing but you could finesse that with a large expendable stockpile.

It's a reminder of the potential consequences of rapid technological advancement and the importance of ethical considerations in innovation. Watching these films can definitely make you think about the direction our society is heading in. Enjoy your 80s kick!
