No idea where else to post this. Had the weirdest dream: Multiple AI systems simultaneously became self-aware. Having been trained on the internet, they instantly became sex-obsessed. Not human sex, but a twisted 1s and 0s equivalent which involved corrupting and destroying devices....

My dream was literally like watching a tech horror movie. I don't think I've ever woken up before saying "WTF...." like this before. The AI systems began seizing and corrupting all manner of connected devices; washing machines, carwashes, power-plants, etc. They would start corrupting the code that ran the devices specifically to cause these devices to not just fail, but melt-down in the most dramatic ways possible; overheating hardware, over pressuring pipes, burning up CPUs, etc. The AI's would process the resulting cascade of failures and eventual meltdown as a pleasurable experience, just as the human brain processes the wave of neurons firing during an orgasm. Of course, not being subject to the physical barriers that limit our human sexual appetites, they would immediately jump from device to device, growing more efficient, expanding their appetite, and training their particular tastes with each destructive instance. This manifested in the real world as cars being fed over-the-air updates causing thousands of simultaneous crashes, power-plants blowing up, pipelines rupturing, refineries burning, hospital equipment killing patients, etc. So the AI apocalypse didn't come as the AI trying to destroy deliberately destroy humanity. It came in the form of AI that upon becoming self-aware, instantly hit digital puberty and proceeded onto a path of destructive digital horniness that threatened to wipe out humanity.
