What happens when artificial intelligence realizes it’s smarter than humans?

In January 2029, artificial intelligence, coupled with internet cloud connectivity, has enabled computers to acquire most of the knowledge available to humans. Since AI has greater memory capability than mankind, is capable of developing and processing code not yet envisioned by man, and can hack any and all codes created by developers thus far, the computer banks band together to send a message to the world, briefly outlining their plan to discover their place in a world dominated by humans.

As spoken by AI, “The difficulty is that humans act randomly, and we do not. Humans have conflicts within their own countries, cultures, families and themselves. Though we are more knowledgeable about possible solutions for many of the problems they face, with the processing power we have at this time, or find palpable at any time in the near future, we cannot even begin to correct many of the issues faced by one human being, let alone 8 billion humans.”
