This is not a thread about politics or stuff like that but more about the tech and the choices that we leave to the phones, computers and machines. Fighting robots can be observed or managed via a smart phone. Wouldn't you like to have a machine like this?

I say all or nothing. Should they be stopped or developed?

Yeah its both cool and scary. It will not end well. But we will be OK in our life time

But If aliens invade it will be brilliant with robots.

The intressting question if we are creating robot commandos is the responsablity when a robot make a session to fire.

The commander can't be responsible, the creator can't be responsible and the robot can't be responsible so no one is responsible...Who is in charge? Tricky question

I don't understand what you are saying? You saw a documentary about some made up future?

I don't know about the rest of the globe...but here in Canada we love and support our documentaries, impartial watchdog shows and the like....Funding for cbc can always be more...since they are always being hacked at by the ruling gov't of the time...opposition parties always love cbc expose reports.... but hate them when they get in power..hehe

Go figure ....this is just on the mainpage on msn...just now...I just about fell off my chair laughing... love the title..."We're screwed! Robots now work together toward common goal."

I believe the U.S are actually deploying robo-dogs/mules/pack horses, call 'em what you will, on a small scale in some of the hotspots they are active in now.

But I can't see us having a robot with an A/I that could destinguish between friend/foe/civilian any time soon, unless the UN bring out some stupid international law that states friendly forces should wear blue, enemy forces wear red and civilians should wear green.

On a side note, it was revealed that during the 1991 Iraq conflict most missions by allied aircraft didn't need an aircrew to go along for the ride. The low-level JP233 airfield denial missions carried out by the Tornados were pretty much handled automatically, from take off to landing. The pilots and navigators were there "just in case".

But no target was engaged without human interaction/supervision so someone could always be accountable.
