James Cameron warns of ‘Terminator-style apocalypse’ if AI weaponised
Director James Cameron warns that integrating AI with weapons systems—even nuclear defence—could trigger a “Terminator-style apocalypse.” Speaking ahead of his adaptation of Ghosts of Hiroshima, Cameron cautions that rapid, AI-driven decision loops risk fatal errors if humans aren’t firmly in control. He sees three simultaneous existential threats—climate collapse, nuclear arms and runaway super-intelligence—and believes AI might also hold the solution.
