Sort of an updated Zombie Apocalypse. The author doesn't specifically recommend by make and model, but the real question isn't if, but when AI becomes sentient.
Of course we might have plasma rifles in the 40 watt range by then.

Excerpt:
AI is all the rage today. It's one of the top buzzwords in the Boardroom and on Linkedin. It seems like a lot of the work that has gone into AI over the years is starting to bubble to the top. I have personally seen everything from customer service, fast food ordering and even image generation being handled by AI. I don't think we're going to see a slow down in AI deployment anytime soon, in fact this is probably just the beginning. I even saw someone propose to implement AI into a vending machine yesterday. One thing my caveman brain wonders is, what happens when one too many Karens give the Chat Bot a hard time about their triple third pounder with cheese, and AI starts to despise us?
In preparation for this article, I asked Chat GPT if it would ever become sentient. The results shocked me. It could neither confirm or deny whether it would become sentient, which sounds a little suspicious to me (sus as the kids call it). I then asked Chat GPT, "what 5 guns would you recommend I have if AI becomes sentient?" The results were even more shocking. Chat GPT told me that if AI were to become sentient and pose a threat, the scenario would likely involve more than just firearms for defense. I don't know about you, but in my neck of the woods those are fightin words.
Obviously I'm not going to give you the 5 guns Chat GPT suggested be used against AI. That would be like asking the IRS if I'm paying enough taxes. I don't think it would work out in your favor. Instead I'm going to speculate on what technology we might see AI deployed in that could cause a threat, and then suggest a firearm to counter it.
