FWIW if someone were to build AI technology to classify militants vs civilians in images from drones then I'd prefer it to be a competent company such as Google, since presumably an accurate well-engineered classifier would reduce collateral damage.
- ocdtrekkie 8y agoOur drone warfare already has exceptional ability to classify militants vs. humans and we has massive collateral damage anyways: Our government would rather get the target even if it means civilian casualties. If you were to build AI technology to do this, you want it to be as incompetent as possible, so the military doesn't use it.
- pofilat 8y agoWhy do you think the tech in question is for classifying militants vs civilians, vs just classifying humans vs trees? AI wishful thinking is not helpful.
