Evil AI Battle: Pick your choices
Be sure to explain why!

First bracket: GLaDOS (Portal) vs SHODAN (System Shock)

Second bracket: Hal9000 (Space Odyssey) vs SkyNET (Terminator) vs AM (I Have No Mouth & I Must Scream)

(Now technically AM is a bit of a... God like being in its power but still)

And lastly, third bracket: overall! All 5 versus each other.

Within in each bracket, rank them in terms of best/most:

-Evilness:
-Power/Potential:
-Sphere of Dominance over humanity:
-Possession/Access to Weaponry:
-Likability:
-Overall Writing:
-Processing power:

And in case one needs a 'human pawn' in order to do the AIs bidding, they can be assumed.

George Carlin did a routine about praying to Joe Pesci and it was frickin' hillarious.

Hal9000 is not actually evil and would die immediately against an evil AI I guess

Interesting, actually. I doubt any of the AI's will be able to 'erase' each other though.

GlaDOS and Hal9000, since both are doing their jobs, being real-like without timeskip progression but manipulation in the subject.

I would also throw SHODAN in there but I agree with your selection
This isn't really a good set of choices.

My money would be on neuromancer. After it fused with its alter ego, it infected every single computer system in a cyberpunk world, including all the space stations and the like. The last time you hear from it is when it is preparing to transmit itself across the Galaxy to meet aliens. It can hack minds alter reality control pretty much whatever it wants.

Definitely neuromancer.

i'd just like to say imo that HAL doesn't stand a chance in this
(neither does glados)

Yes, but the human brain or rather personality is deleted at the end of P2; in fact even before that, the human component was buried deep, deep beneath the rogue AI; they even kept trying too attach corrupt personality cores to slow her down. Didn't work

No, she's not. She isn't as ruthless or as desperate as SHODAN though, so I'd say she'd lose because she'd be more interested in figuring everything out, than panicking and trying to fight. They might team up, though.

HAL would lose outright, I suspect they'd all go down to SKYNET. It might try to absorb them all and make a 'supersupercomputer' but it might also consider their 'personalities' too much like humanity to be allowed.
