Presenting the killbot 5000!

[Souplex]

There are several million threads about surviving a zombie apocalypse, but I haven't really seen any about surviving a robot uprising. How would you?
(Note: Before everyone shouts EMP! know that magnetic shielding exists and you would also need a reasonable method of obtaining one)

 

[Gmano]

Yeah, good luck obtaining a thermonuclear bomb for use as an EMP...

I would head up into the mountains, provided the machines don't control the logging equipment...

 

[JRCB]

Hmmm.... upload a virus to their robonet. And then break out some guns. And tanks.

 

[Shock and Awe]

I would also kidnap a super hacker to tap into their mainframe to disable them all, if that fails I would raid a military base(all the soldiers would be gone fighting robots) and take a few grenade launchers all the grenades(both launchable and otherwise) C4, and basically all explosives since bullets won't do shit to robots and head out to the mountains.

"Killbots have a preset kill limit. Knowing their weakness, I simply sent wave after wave of my own men at them until they reached their limit and shut down."

"Yeah... still, we can always build more killbots!"

Cookie for reference.

I am guessing Futurama

How would you program a virus designed to interact with their complex AI, how would you get it into their network and where would you get the guns and tanks?

 

[Random Argument Man]

Mmmmmmmm.....Are they water-proof?

Futurama, and I was thinking the same thing.

OT: Umm, head to the ocean. Robots will get zapped by water!

 

[Andantil]

kinda depends what sort of robots, and if they control nuclear weapons.
if they're big scary robots, and have nukes then I'd need an orbital ion cannon. Manually controlled of course.
If they have no nukes, then all I need is a molly knife and I'll be good to go.

For the first bit, find a person really good with computers. Maybe even the guy who designed the AI.

Second bit? eBay. You can find EVERYTHING on eBay.

Whenever I yelled 'Kill all humans!' I always kind of wished for not one.

 

[HE Starwind]

I'd pretend to be a robot, I can speak binary.

Don't question me! D:

 

[Souplex]

Umm, head to the ocean. Robots will get zapped by water!

They already have undersea robots; Top of the line K.I.L.L.A.M.A.J.I.G. model robots would probably be capable of surviving water.

Create a zombie infestation to fight the robots then?
