Yeah, that's a real military satellite named Skynet.
Still not afraid enough? How about:

Yeah, that's a real company named Cyberdyne. They make artificial
exoskeletons (incidentally named "HAL", but I'm sure that's just
a coincidence).

Meh. I couldn't be scared less.

Quite a party pooper, aren't you?

Unless Miles Dyson works for them, I'm not overly concerned. And even
then, Sarah Connor will take care of the problem for us.

Mind, if it was a computer system set up to "watchdog" all networks, for
anti-terrorism, or the artificial exoskeletons where like autonomous
drones... I might find it funnier than hell, whether or not Miles Dyson
worked for them or not. The completely absurd joke in the movie series
was that we could, by accident, produce something smart enough to not
want to be turned off, fail to recognize when it was already sweeping up
systems, one by one, and opening the flood gates (on the theory we where
stopping a virus), and finally, that this super smart program, which
only got smart by taking over nearly every damn computer on the planet,
solved its human problem by "nuking" every major city out of existence,
along with all the computers that it was sitting on.
I would think that.. kind of qualifies as a major plot hole. lol

Surely it would be able to calculate proper targets for the bombs and
where to locate itself in order to avoid being itself wiped out. In fact,
for such an AI that it surpasses all humanity in intelligence and knowledge,
it wouldn't be even difficult.

Its a distributed AI, so.. lets just say it might have worked, up until
the movie where you kind of find out that they tried releasing it to
kill itself, then.. it became a bit implausible, since that implied a
certain level of "dependence" in the networks it was infiltrating. But,
heh, what do I know.. lol

Note that Skynet was an AI designed to control all of the United States
military computer systems. Surely the US military has its critical main
servers placed at secure locations, shielded from atomic blasts (eg. in
deep underground bomb shelters etc) precisely to keep the critical military
systems running in the event of nuclear war. (This is most certainly the
case even in real life.)
Naturally Skynet, being in control of all these systems, could locate itself
into these servers and keep running all operations from there even during
the bombing.

Well, in theory, but the sense you get is that it only got "smart" as it
spread. So, its kind of like thinking you can build human intelligence,
then cram it back into the brain of a rat, with vastly fewer neurons. I
suppose, it might have found non-military code, compression systems, or
other things, that somehow "let" it cram itself back into the box, as it
where, but... Like I said, it depends on whether you assume it was smart
enough on the military machines, to begin with, or the "critical" point
was when its "neurons" grew significantly, as it networked, and took in
nearly every other possible system as well.
