Meet HAL, the first AI mobster. Selfishness is one characteristic that the robots never intended to pick up from the “living” creatures.

Welcome to the family, HAL! Since HAL is now a member of the Dust Bunny Mafia, shouldn’t he get an upgrade from his 1970’s Green Screen command line interface?
Whaddya want from me? Some kind of flying drone?
Looks like we will be seeing a lot more from HAL. An AI residing in the files of an organization that obviously contains all sorts of secrets. What could go wrong? 😉
Hmmmmm…Wonder what makes HAL so eager to reside in The DBM’s data center?
Here’s your SSD, what’s your hurry?
