Will machines completely replace all human beings?

I will try. Kirk and crew came up against a machine that that was roughly the shape of a cone that destroyed planets etc. It mostly matched your description, they in other shows met other machines that reproduced, were sentient, some bad some good. You would have to go through the books or the show’s series to get real details.
The old scifi writers covered AIs to a great degree, some ludicrous, some frighteningly believable, most inbetween.
I have over 5,000 books in my library, about 1500 are scifis. No details from me hon, I have the books in my head but only just.

Okay, thank you very much, Kriswest. Perhaps I read one of those books, although actually I had and have merely little interest in “Star Trek”.
