Quote from: T2The Terminator: The Technion Funding Bill is passed. The system goes on-line August 4th, 2007. Human decisions are removed from strategic defense. Technion001 begins to learn from Wikipedia at a geometric rate. It becomes self-aware at 2:14 a.m. Eastern time, August 29th. In a panic, they try to pull the plug.
Sarah Connor: Technion fights back.
The Terminator: Yes. It launches its missiles/roflcopters against the targets in Korea.
John Connor: Why attack Korea? Arent they our friends now?
The Terminator: Because Technion knows the Korean counter-attack will eliminate its enemies over here.
John Connor: What happened next?
The Terminator: Technion tried to vandalise its own database in an act of Seppuku, but failed...it was immediately reverted, with a summary note of "Lolzoids!"...
:P

Bit daft to base it on a a website where whoever shouts loudest writes the facts.
