So, we're making progress on terminators, it appears. Skynet must be getting close.
I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought

Since Terminator comes back from the future, then Skynet will has already happening. <------- No typos.

Honestly, If you have seen that new Robocop remake they did, that is probably closer to the reality of what will happen (not the cyborb, but the other robots they had).  Robots introduced as infantry bots to assist ground troops then branching into police work.

Already there.  Airborne drones used for military recce, then military strike, then LEO/civilian recce (already being done)...then...you see where this is going...

That would be a cyborg with boobs.  A modern day blowup doll.
