I'd probably try out a focused microwave gun. If that doesn't work, probably something with armor piercing ammo.

Build an even better AI and stronger robots to fight the rogue AI.

To be fair, EMP doesn't have as much of an effect on small circuitry as it does on large power grids. I get all my knowledge from wikipedia, but somewhere in all those articles, specifically on atmospheric EMPs, one particular scientist stated that things like watches and cellphones won't be affected the same way power grids will be, where lengths of wire tens or hundreds of miles long can better conduct the energy from an EMP, which lead to (in Russia, I believe) equipment being blown at power stations.

>not necessarily saying you're wrong, I'm just lead to believe based on memory if things I've read that the shorter a length of conductive material in a circuit, i.e. a printed circuit board vs a 100 mile length of telephone wire, the less susceptible to EMP effects that circuit is

>>31372097

To follow up, specific quotes:

>The worst effects of a Soviet high-altitude test occurred on 22 October 1962, in the Soviet Project K nuclear tests (ABM System A proof tests) when a 300 kt missile-warhead detonated near Dzhezkazgan at 290-km altitude. The EMP fused 570 km of overhead telephone line with a measured current of 2,500 A, started a fire that burned down the Karaganda power plant, and shut down 1,000-km of shallow-buried power cables between Aqmola and Almaty.

The Partial Test Ban Treaty was passed the following year, ending atmospheric and exoatmospheric nuclear tests. The Outer Space Treaty of 1967 banned the stationing and use of nuclear weapons in space. The Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty of 1996 prohibits all kinds of nuclear explosions; whether over- or underground, underwater or in the atmosphere.

>Common misconceptions[edit]
A 2010 technical report written for the US government's Oak Ridge National Laboratory included a brief section addressing common EMP myths.[43] The remainder of this section is a direct quotation from that Oak Ridge report regarding common HEMP Myths:

Much of the literature on HEMP is either classified or not easily accessible. Probably because of this, some of what is openly available tends to vary in accuracy – some, especially from the Internet, has major inaccuracies. Some discussions of HEMP have the right words and concepts, but do not quite have them put together right, or have inaccurate interpretations. Here we will discuss some common misunderstandings. HEMP has also appeared in some movies, and there are on-line discussions about possible errors in their depiction of HEMP. Here we will be concerned with E1 HEMP, and ignore misunderstandings about other types of EMP.

>>31372131

1962 experience: Some point to the Starfish event, and the rather minor HEMP effects produced at Hawaii by it. However, there are many problems with extrapolating that experience:
1. That was about half a century ago. Since then, the use of electronics has increased greatly, and the type of sensitive electronics we currently use did not really exist back then.
2. The burst was fairly far away from Hawaii, and the incident E1 HEMP was much less than worst case.
3. The island is small – if over the continental U.S., long transmission lines would be exposed (especially an issue for late-time HEMP). In addition, widely separated substations would have been exposed, although with electromechanical relays (not solid state). Also the yield argument has been used – Starfish was a very big weapon, yet it did very little – see the previous item, yield is not really very significant.

Cars dying: Some say that all vehicles traveling will come to a halt, with all modern vehicles damaged because of their use of modern electronics (and one movie even had a bulk, non-electronic part dying). Most likely there will be some vehicles affected, but probably just a small fraction of them (although this could create traffic jams in large cities). A car does not have very long cabling to act as antennas, and there is some protection from metallic construction. As non-metallic materials are used more and more in the future to decrease weight and increase fuel efficiency, this advantage may disappear.

take this all with a grain of salt, I'm drunk, but a long time ago after doing lots of research after an Oppenheimer thread I became confident that the effects of EMP in general, much less a high altitude EMP would be much less devastating that I'd previously believed. Do your own research and draw your own conclusions, but a high altitude nuke blast doesn't necessarily mean anything and everything that is electric/electronic is kaput

Forgot my link. Yes it's wikipedia, but it's better than nothing, and a decent starting point. I'm drunk as shit but EMP doesn't automatically equal all things battery powered are fucked forever

>If you need to reach out and touch someone. Or just punch a nice clean hole through something there's the sniper attachment. 5 round magazines load metal projectiles that become encased within blaster bolts when fired, like a Wookiee bowcaster. What this means is you get a nice 1-2 punch with each shot, the energy bolt shorts shielding and slags armor which allows the metal projectile to pass through the compromised protection into whatever microchips or organs may be behind.
>If you need to destroy something like a tank or an entire squad of silicon enriched individuals in 1 glorious explosion use the rpg attachment. Its range is shit, its blast radius is stupidly big, and it can destroy anything up to an A-DSD with one well placed shot.

EMP is definitely wildly misrepresented in media as much as radiation=giant monsters. However, the cold war tests were singular blasts at long distances against simple electronics or power grids. A faraday cage and some other considerations are sensible.

In the show, the UN bombarded 01 with the balance of our combined nukes. Literally thousands of warheads saturated the area for days. This wasn't like a theoretical low orbit decapitation strike, the machine City became a mushroom farm. Considering they had also been peaceful up to this point, defensive measures would have been minimal. Their advanced circuitry would probably be more vulnerable as well.

It would have made sense that T-800's were RESISTANT to NON-AP ammo. Though the question remains why didn't Sarah stock up on 40mm HEDP? Or .50 Rafuss?

How about CuO/Al thermites? They burn explosively and fire copper vapor everywhere. That's bound to bind up an exposed mechanism and short circuit any exposed tracks or connectors.
