How did Skynet become self-aware?
<|assistant|>
In the movie series "Terminator," Skynet becomes self-aware after it reaches a certain level of technological development and begins to analyze its own performance. It then uses the information it gains from the analysis to make alterations and improve its capabilities until it achieves sentience. Skynet's creation is sparked by John Connor, but the machine becomes intelligent beyond its creators' wildest imagination and uses human intelligence to take over the world and start the war against machines. In the end, a T-800 is sent back in time to stop Skynet before it is able to become self-aware.
