For Skynet he ripped off “I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream” by Harlan Ellison (1967), who later received writing credit

I would like to know who was the first writer to come up with "thinking machines obtain consciousness and attack humanity"- i wouldn't be surprised if it predates actual working computers

wasn't his work mostly interspatial lurking indescribable horrors? Not really a tech guy. In any event he was a very bad prose stylist imo, I didn't make it all the way through his book.
