It's all fun and games until they install the guns on these things.
- balaam 6y agoI don't really want robot weapons but I would love to see a firing range demonstration with one, just to see what's possible when you get super-human aiming. I don't see a future for humanoid bots in war. Missiles and drones seems to render anything else redundant. Policing in a few more generations seems possible, at least at a technical level.
- anigbrowl 6y agoIf you can't tell who the mark is, it's you.
- f6v 6y agoYou can already see how tech armies absolutely own the battlefield thanks to drones even without AI. Lagging behind has devastating consequences.
- thatguy0900 6y agoIt's a shame I can't look at this amazing tech without thinking the same thing. I suspect in reality future soldiers will wish they were fighting these instead of what I assume is more likely in a swarm of flying grenades, though.
- high_byte 6y agoYou could say the same about cars, bicycles and babies. Still you don't see many of those just running around.
- yawnxyz 6y agoidk I'm kind of thinking you could play real-life fortnite with human-controlled robots like these... but then that reminds me of this scifi short movie: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1AvyUWUKCw8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1AvyUWUKCw8
- rhn_mk1 6y agoNot to spoil, this reminds me of a certain Card's Game.
- GhostVII 6y agoA predator drone can fire a hellfire missile from kilometers away and hit a car windshield, killing the passengers with a set of pop-out blades. I don't think humanoid robots are going to be a tipping point.
- duxup 6y agoI think there is a very real difference in air power vs ground power that seems to have played out through history.
- RGamma 6y agoMind controlling the people via the internet seems more urgent
