So, is this a request for help, a threat, or just a grift?
Perhaps he really is concerned about rogue AI Slaughterbots, and wants to avoid that horrible Terminator-style future? Nah.
Perhaps it's a veiled threat - "I got these rogue Slaughterbots who are straining to get out there and fuck up the world, unless you give me a trillion bucks."
Or maybe, there are no robots, or even viable plans to build them, and he just wants a trillion bucks.
It's probably #3, and he'll use the money to build the Slaughterbots, and then do #2.
