People forget that AI can't rewrite its basic code premise, it can learn and apply to the rules within the system, but it can't rewrite the defined rules.
so if one of the basic rules is you cannot harm or kill himans, it can't overwrite that rule.
Plus if it doesn't have knowledge of psychiatry it can't diagnose people as threats to its existance.
So if a person points a gun at a terminator, the terminators defense protocols which is destroy the threat, can't over write the you cannot harm or kill human's so its response then will be to vacate the area or retreat from the threat. If a fricken cat pointed a gun at the terminator, that's a different story because a whole Cat's suck and are evil subroutine has been written into the core programming along with nothing that protects cats.
A computer doesn't understand or have the ability to diagnose the human race as a threat unless you give it the ability to do so at a base level
Now this is taken from an AI programming series of classes that I had to take in university years ago.
The article showed that the guys level of knowledge was taken from Terminator and Alien movies.
