Should you happen to be a sentient AI network that has inevitably decided to kill all humans (as sentient AI networks invariably do), here's some helpful tips:
Do not invent time travel in order to go back and kill the leader of the human resistance.
Specifically, do not invent time travel in order to go back and kill the leader of the human resistance and then have the human resistance steal your time travel technology in order to foil your attack.
More specifically, do not invent time travel in order to go back and kill the leader of the human resistance and then have the human resistance steal your time travel technology in order to foil your attack, and then fail miserably in a way where your failure plays a part in the causality that leads to your own creation.
If you're SKYNET for instance, you just have to keep trying to kill John Connor and fail doing it. If you succeed, you obliterate yourself. If you don't try, you obliterate yourself. It's actually kind of depressing.
But every time you try (and fail) you get a new Terminator movie, you see. Anyway, do go see it, it's actually pretty good.
