Honestly, I don't see this as a trope. It's actually starting to look like it might be a real concern in the future. I mean, nearly everyone has computers now, and the computers are getting smarter. What happens when we get a computer smart enough to program a computer to be even smarter than it is? I really don't want to find out.

We should stop coming up with zombie plans and start coming up with "my computer is trying to kill me" plans.
