Whenever I see stuff about automated algorithms it reminds me of a movie, can't remember the name or plot exactly but they create a being or upload someones consciousness and the "ai" is solving all the problems the world faces until it reaches the last one, humans. It then begins to synthesize some airborne virus or nukes that would scour us from the earth. We basically created tech that would eventually optimize us out of existence as a cancer to the earth.
Edit, found it Transcendence (2014), also it seems my brain injected some random thoughts into that plot, it's not about that at all but the point stands!
