A Reddit AMA with a hive-mind intelligence AI has turned out some pretty worrying answers about the future of humanity.
UNU is an artificial 'swarm intelligence' that links together lots of people's thoughts into a real-time system, claiming to give better answers than any of its individual human parts.
It took part in an 'ask me anything' on Reddit about US politics yesterday, receiving almost 5,000 responses.

Oh well, at least the Euros start soon.
