Someone needs to build a self-piloting drone with a good EMR sensor, program it to fly around looking for unprotected outdoor electrical outlets and give it a probe tool dextrous enough to plug itself in to recharge. Call it a Mosquito.
I mean not that this would be terribly useful by itself, but it’d be a good proof of concept and evolutionary platform for…. Skynet, I guess. Basically Skynet.
