The thinking about the alien invasion, what is made by our own space probe, what would turn against us

Above the text is a link to the movie, where portraying fictional or hypothetical trip to another solar system. The trip would make by an automatized space probe, what uses highly sophisticated artificial intelligence. That kind of space probes what would fly about 20% speed of light are maybe possible in distant future, and there would be the risk that those probes would turn against the human race. In that scenario, the attacking alien is actually the man-made probe what attacks to Earth for some reason. Some people have made the scenario that some probes would want to revenge the treatment of the robots on Earth.
This might be possible if the robots or artificial intelligence thinks itself as a living organism. Those people have spoken with dark humor about the opportunity, that Voyager-space probes would become intelligent in the superconducting circumstances. And then more advanced probe would find that, and then this more advanced probe turns against its creators because it would want to revenge the treatment of this "helpless Voyager probe". But this is only the philosophical thinking about it.
Because if those space probes have “Von Neumann” capacity, what means that those probes can make copies of themselves. Those probes would find necessary materials by using laser-spectrometers and 3D printing systems, and that would give the probe more capacities than single probe ever could have. The reason for sending those highly intelligent probes to other solar systems would cause the reason to make those vehicles lighter. If they can fix themselves by using asteroids as raw material, what would be melted in the small factory, would the mission successful.
And if the computer can make the vehicles, what are needed for planet surface operations autonomically, would that help the operation success. And if there would many interesting planets in that alien solar system, would there be enough landing probes for every planet. Because this fictional probe would produce its own landing probes, failure of single landing probe doesn’t cause troubles for its mission. But if the artificial intelligence would become abreast of itself, and starts to think like human and protect itself, would this kind of probe become the ultimate enemy.
The problem of those probes is that they can be covered some top secret missions. To other solar systems might send the probes, what are used for making weapons. And those factories might use artificial intelligence and evolution modeling for creating perfect weapons. In this case, some secret military organization would send the automatic factory to another solar system, and then that factory begins artificial evolution. In this fictional nightmare, those automatized factories would send the results of their work to earth.
Then those solar systems would send the probe, for investigating that star. And then those military robots would strike against those probes, and then they would start the way to the Earth. In the film below, the animals of Darwin four doesn’t seem natural. And maybe those hypothetical beasts and other animals are created by some computer, what uses artificial evolution for creating new kind of super robots. Then the drone from Earth would tell to those robots, where they can find the Earth.
There is an interesting film about alien contact, and its made by BBC. Link to this film finds at the above and end of this text. In this film is fictional predators, what have little bit different touches than natural robots would have. Also, the “bird” with jet motors might mean for some example, what can be made by using high-level biotechnology and artificial intelligence.
And this BBC-made film could perform the planet, where have been artificial evolution because of some reasons. Maybe the makers of that film are thought the situation, that there would send the automatic factory for weapon research to another solar system. Then the probe would follow that factory after a couple of hundred or thousand years because the makers of that automatic factory want to find out, what that machine can really do.
