There are three main reasons why the "antichrist" will be an artificially intelligent android: 1) When following the instructions given in Revelation in how to identify the "antichrist" we find 666 yields a binary code. 2) The "antichrist" is actually said to be an artificial representation, or "image", that comes to life. 3) The Beast is described in Daniel as repeatedly being different from all other kingdoms and rulers that came before it and, in Revelation, unable to be defeated or warred against.
Here is a video that explains all these ideas in a bit more detail:

I haven't watched the video yet.
I the Bible when it talks about an image of the beast. I have long thought it might be something man made. Connected to the internet or something.
Also when it talks about the two witnesses in Revelation. That the whole world sees them when they are killed. That sounds like TV too. You know what I'm talking about. Where it says all kindreds tongues and nations will see them two witnesses lie dead in the streets.

Why do most people assume the antichrist is going to be like a scifi movie? The imagery of the antichrist points to a system that is the opposite of what Christianity teaches. Anti means dissimilar or "instead of", The antichrist maybe a political system or a religion or a philosophy, etc. No need to look for a central Hitler figure.
And the closest we had to the antichrist was Hitler and Stalin and we won't see their likes rise again I think because of the information age - the lone world conqueror like Alexander or Caesar or a Napoleon ended with the Hitler and Stalin. I don't think someone can rise up like that again and be seen as a demigod because people have the Hitler and Stalin comparisons to make.
If Hitler had won the war then it would be built into our mindset to look for such a leader and expect winning results. That is not the case any longer.
The Devil is not omniscient. He doesn't know when the Tribulation will begin. As a result I believe there is in every generation someone who will fit the bill to be the Antichrist for the Devil.
