The Halo Forerunners technology is where I’d like humanity’s AI-infused future to end up.
The more advanced Halo Precursors had a level of technology that made the Laws of Physics / Laws of Reality optional for any desired area. The Laws could be rewritten on a whim, like they were pencil sketches.
Oh, some other science fiction weapons that interest / terrify me…
Dr Manhattan, a human WMD (science is the ultimate superpower)
The aliens in The Three Body Problem. A small group of alien scout drones (space UAVs) demolished future humanity’s best space battle-group.
