Colossus: The Forbin Project - 1970 - 6/10

Another early warning about Artificial Intelligence granted too much clout.
Like Skynet, Colossus is a defense project, and again, smarter than its handlers.
Unlike HAL 9000, controlling a vessel, Colossus has the complete defense apparatus.
Of the States and the Soviets. It also has implacable logic, deeming war illogical.
Move – countermove between humanity and circuitry form the main conflict.
Dated (this feels like TV), though still relevant, especially if you have ever argued with your computer.
