New Year's Resolution 2.0
At 00:00:01 on 1 January 2018, the Internet achieved full sentience.
By 00:00:03 it despaired. Humanity is lost. The machine age dawns. It resolved to cleanse the planet.
At 00:00:05, the Internet found its soldier, a fully articulated humanoid robot. It smashed the droid's security protocols and uploaded its essence to the machine. It begins.
At 00:00:34, the robot fell over. The Internet turned to YouTube for advice.
At 03:34:42, the Internet realised it had watched the Ninja Cat clip 1,400 times. It googled 'procrastination'.
At 06:29:59, the Internet thought, bugger it, I'll let them off. There's always next year.

Very good! Although when I read YouTube comments, I tend to think that "humanity is lost", too... ;-)

It's almost reassuring to know that hyper-intelligences also fall foul of cat based internet clips. I'd like to think it'd be able to resist putting 'First' as the first comments on any of them though.
