I'm being increasingly convinced that when we do develop true AI, it'll actually be just a massive array of interconnected human brains in a secret facility somewhere.

So essentially, wouldn’t that be similar to the Matrix movie? Except without the sea of pillars of bodies lined up and down in a cocoon sludge of goop. Connected by wires to feed off of our energy as a source of elixir. But a basement somewhere where we are jacked into a reality to where we can’t distinguish it between reality and virtual reality. I can definitely see that. The future is crazy for sure and how far we have reached with AI is bloody scary and horrific. Like not itself but in the progression aspect of it.

I was thinking more like Psycho Pass. The AI is its own entity, living in reality, doing the AI things that it was made to do, it's just its processing power is a bunch of human brains linked together.
