The opening chapter of the robot invasion.

Computer geniuses Bill Gates and Elon Musk have recently expressed their fears over the proliferation of artificial intelligence, and it seems as though the robots have learned to disrespect their human masters. BBC Breakfast presenter Charlie Stayt thanks the robot (whose name is Linda) for joining them in the studio and Linda responds in a way that the hosts were not expecting. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EA4gnmtPz44 While it's likely that Linda was actually trying to thank Charlie and Louise for letting her help host the show, she very audibly says something else. Artificial 'intelligence' might be a stretch for this particular droid.
