We had sufficient AI to make death machines for decades. You don't need fancy LLMs to get a pretty good success rate for targeting.
I have said for years that the only thing keeping us from "stabby the robot" is solving the power problem. If you can keep a drone going for a week, you have a killing machine. Use blades to avoid running out of ammo. Use IR detection to find the jugular. Stab, stab and move on. I'm guessing "traditional" vision algorithms are also sufficient to, say, identify an ethnicity and conduct ethnic cleansing. We are "solving the power problem" away from a new class of WMDs that are accessible to smaller states/groups/individuals.
- selfmodruntime 2y ago> We had sufficient AI to make death machines for decades And we already reached the peek here. Small drones that are cheaply mass produced, fly on SIM cards alone and explode when they reached a target. That's all there is to it. You don't need a gun mounted on a spot or a humanoid robot carrying a gun. Exploding swarms are enough.
- charlie0 2y agoBlack Mirror has the perfect episode for this scenario already.

- selfmodruntime 2y agoYou are severely underestimating the speed of drones and their formation capabilities, as well as overestimating your aim under immense danger.
