What could go wrong
I’m hoping for the Faro Plague.
What could go wrong?
dont worry first they test it where civil lives dont matter and once it passes some basic tests, they will become available for domestic (ab)use
Armed AI robots in the Middle East, I’m pretty sure this was in the animatrix
So if a robot commits a war crime, they can just blame it on AI and call it a day, right? Sounds like an easy way to do whatever the fuck you want.
Has the Army watched like… any sci-fi ever?
I remember some kinda skit about sci Fi authors writing about how bad a torture matrix would be ironically inspiring real people to create the torture matrix cause it’s the future.
The Torment Nexus.
Shh…let it happen…
Someone is bound to be dropping out of the sky to help us any minute now…
I really wish aliens would invade. I’d side with them against our various oligarchies.
Yeah, Humanity has had a good run, let’s wrap this shit up.
I mean, I’d rather not be hunted down by an AI robot dog, but you do you.
It’s happening anyway. We build them. Others build them in response because they have to. The sophistication of killbots will increase. Terrorists will get hold of them eventually. They’ll be hacked and turned on their handlers and/or civilians.
All this is on top of ever increasing climate catastrophe. Look at Appalachia. The topography of those mountains was just rewritten. Whole towns erased like they were never there.
That’s not a reason for me to want it to happen. Which was your original post’s suggestion.
My first post was about letting the army fuck around and find out. Let the natural course of events remind them of those scifi movies they forgot about.
Let them fuck around and find out to the tune of how many lives?
Thousands at least. The more effective the killbots are the more money our war economy will throw at warbot R&D.
This is happening. Nothing on this planet can stop it.
They’re the ones fucking around, we’ll be the ones finding out
A civilization that uses these weapons isn’t worth defending.
Well you see, the owners know you won’t die for them anymore, but now they’re able to take you out of the equation. Don’t even need poors to conquer the world. It’s really a great deal for them.
Fucking buffoons, all.
Okay, but if it doesn’t say “You have thirty seconds to comply” before shooting someone then what’s the point?
Totally cool.
Coolcoolcoolcoolcool…the future is gonna be hella-fucked.
Oh it was already tremendously fucked. This is just gravy on top.
Fuckin killbots. Coming soon to the 1033 program and thus, your local police department. The Boston Dynamics: Wardog!
We should never have moved away from sticks and stones tbh. Anything that works at long range makes people misunderstand what war is. War needs to look disgusting, because the more clean and automated it looks, the less horrible it looks to people spectacting it. But it is indeed just as horrible as beating someone to death with a rock.
I see your point but I’d take getting shot any day over beaten to death with a rock.
I mean the point is: let’s not. War bad, mkay?
Jfc, black mirror is not a blueprint, it’s a warning.
Two words folks: Torment Nexus
Not that it matters, but didn’t the UN already ban lethal autonomous robots?
Like an ED-209 situation?
