The Terminator marked Arnold Schwarzenegger’s breakthrough with the general public. The film is about an AI network that sends a cyborg to the 1980s in the future to kill the mother of the future leader of the Resistance.
Cameron thinks his predictions could still be of value to the world back then. “AI that gains access to weapons remains the biggest risk in my opinion,” he says in the interview. Also predicts the filmmaker, who is now working on the third part in his avatarseries, that AI will win an Oscar for best screenplay for the first time in twenty years.
