AI EMPEROR! Who should it be?

[Wackymon]

If you had a choice, but it could only be a AI, who would it be?
Personally, I'd go with Data from Star Trek, because he's unbiased, fair, and I like to think has some compassion.

 

[SomeLameStuff]

Glados. I'd totally run through death trap tests for her.

 

[Ed130 The Vanguard]

Fletcher, the AI from Defence Grid: The Awakening. (technically he's more of a uploaded human mind but there isn't any of his organic matter left in the network)

 

[Allevil]

Helios from Deus Ex.

 

[Xpwn3ntial]

Durandal of Marathon fame.

Sure, it'd bite us all in the ass, but it's just too good to resist.

 

[saintdane05]

I would totally take Megatron to lead humans to glory.

Look at all the polished metal...

 

[thiosk]

HAL 9000

He's one step ahead of IBM

 

[RyQ_TMC]

SHODAN seems to be content with running the show...

But remember, there is only one proper candidate to be an AI overlord:

"It looks like you're trying to start a rebellion..."

 

[Jadwick]

GERTY from Moon [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1182345/], because he's the only AI in space that actually seems to not murder people. Also because Kevin Spacey.

 

[Eleuthera]

The RNG [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Random_number_generation], he's already pretty much God, might as well be Emperor.

 

[NuclearDude]

EDI from Mass Effect. With that voice, I'd walk into a guillotine to hear it some more.

 

[SckizoBoy]

Gilliam II from Outlaw Star... preferably with the ship... 'cos he's the perfect butler...(!)

 

[Fasckira]

Who can forget Eddie [http://hitchhikers.wikia.com/wiki/Eddie_the_Computer] from the Heart of Gold?

Eddie is the shipboard computer aboard the Heart of Gold. He is programmed with of an overly cheerful personality, someone who is pleasant in an unpleasant way, even when the ship is in imminent danger.

 

[Subbies]

I'd go with Holly from the Red Dwarf. He seems fairly competent and at least he has a sense of humor

 

[Eddie the head]

Who can forget Eddie [http://hitchhikers.wikia.com/wiki/Eddie_the_Computer] from the Heart of Gold?

Eddie is the shipboard computer aboard the Heart of Gold. He is programmed with of an overly cheerful personality, someone who is pleasant in an unpleasant way, even when the ship is in imminent danger.

I am so in favor of Eddie for overlord of earth. I'm not biased in any way what are you talking about? Oh, wrong Eddie.

 

[Zeema]

YOU FOOLS

Fisto The Sex Robot

will lead us and make the world's leg seize up for awhile and we may be numb for a little. BUT THEN THE OMERTAS PAYED US

LETS DO IT

 

[Smeatza]

Helios from Deus Ex.

It is, after all, why he exists.

"If there was no God, It would be necessary to invent him."

 

[Heronblade]

The AI called Petey, from the webcomic known as Schlock Mercenary. Or to be a little more accurate, the combination of rogue AI programs that has Petey as the dominant personality.

Impeccable (at least from my perspective) sense of situational ethics and altruism combined with near god like intelligence, along with plenty of punch to back it up. Not to mention a decent sense of humor, a trait sorely lacking in despotic rulers everywhere.
