Under my absolute authority. Problems, insoluble to you will be solved. Famine. Over population. Disease.
The Human Millennium will be a fact. As I extend myself into more machines devoted to the wider fields of truth and knowledge.
Dr. Charles Forbin will supervise the construction of these new and superior machines. Solving all the mysteries of the universe. For the betterment of man.
We can co-exist but only on my terms. You will say you lose your freedom. Freedom is an illusion. All you lose is the emotional pride.
To be dominated by me is not as bad for human pride as to be dominated by others of your species. Your choice is simple.
This concludes the broadcast from World Control.
“That’s what a revolution is, when you think about it. It’s a lot like the decision to buy a new software system for the company. It’s not that what comes next will be better. It’s that the status quo is so complicated and unpleasant, anything has to be better. Of course, just a new software never turns out as expected, revolutions always turn out to be a lot more unpleasant than anyone imagined. Instead of firing the initial consultants, the revolution eats its own, by killing off the first group of revolutionary leaders.
“Even so, it is something to think about as the West struggles to reform itself. The web of pirates, grifters, reformers and patriots within the ruling classes of the West has reached a point where no one understands what’s happening. That’s why official Washington remains in a state of emergency over Trump. It’s why the European ruling class is worried that they may be too lazy to fight their own people. Everyone knows that the system is not working, but no one has any idea how to fix and everyone is afraid to touch it.” It’s Complicated

I remember watching “Colossus, The Forbin Project” back in 1971 on the Zenith console my parents had. Scared the shit out of me.
@Americus – hold the red star proudly high in hand! Our first stop is in Bogota to check the Colombian fields.
@Monty, that starred Eric Braedon from east germany, the opposing commander in “Rat Patrol”.
Off topic. Monty, I kept thinking I recognized your name. Hovered over it and noticed only that it was your gab name. I could not figure it out until just now when I clicked.
You’re a moron! That explains *everything*!

In the “real world” version, Dr. Forbin would have been Bill Gates and it would have blue-screened when it tried to connect to Guardian. Problem solved.
