Yeah, but that's when he tried to delegate the controls to AI. He could just do what the Sovereign do in GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL.2.

It does always bear pointing out how weakened the whole point of Age of Ultron is by having the problem never be with Tony's tech in and of itself but be with his decision to plug an evil wizard staff into it

Even worse, you can make a strong case the *actual* problem is that Tony fucked off to have a party while leaving the project in the care of an explicitly inferior AI. If an actual human were around, they could have just pulled the plug on Ultron or stopped him from making a body

Yeah but he was gone for like four hours I mean sure it's a joke about Tony not realizing how "the Singularity" works and what happens when an AI experiences exponential growth But come on

When he and Bruce left the lab Ultron didn't even *exist* yet He angrily asks Bruce afterwards "Were we anywhere close to an interface?", i.e. the scepter wasn't even actually fully plugged into JARVIS yet, JARVIS was still trying to figure out how to actually do that

I mean, he was working on a being he'd considered entrusting the future of humanity to, using technology he barely understood (to the point I believe no one really knew Stones were a thing at the time). You'd think some absolutely unprecedented security would be called for.

Actually, what role do Ultron level AI _have_ in Thanos' power structure? Why would he and the Chitauri even have such a thing given that neither the THOR or GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY movies indicate that AI are any sort of big deal in the wider universe?

They didn't make an AI, the "AI" is built into the way the Mind Stone works and always has worked since the Infinity Stones were created in the primordial chaos The Mind Stone contains the fossilized remnant of the mind of the being who died to become the Stones or whatever

The Scepter is an "interface" built by some ancient civilization to contain and harness the Mind Stone's mind to perform relatively simple parlor tricks like Loki's mass hypnosis

their equivalent of a crude raspberry pi Maker kludge "turn pillar of reality into fun toy to humiliate apes"

Right, Tony and Bruce do a little poking around in the Scepter and realize it's "run by an advanced supercomputer" that its makers didn't realize the full potential of and think if they copy it over to their systems they can revolutionize the field of AI

Because they don't realize the primary purpose of the Scepter is to serve as a prison (And the reason the Scepter is an Evil Artifact that makes everyone around it angry and bitter and resentful is that it's leaky, even when not being used the Mind Stone is filled with rage)

So the reason it doesn't turn Vision evil is because it's essentially free at that point and therefore happy?
