I can't be the only one thinking this is a bad idea - not because of what the site suggests their intended goal is, which at first glance is entirely reasonable

I can't be the only one thinking this is a bad idea - not because of what the site suggests their intended goal is, which at first glance is entirely reasonable. Once they've automated defense, how long until someone automates offense... and then how long until everyone is caught in the middle of a cyber arms race? If a computer system is designed to defend itself against attackers, where does that path lead? Before this project, I've laughed off the Skynet conspiracy theories, but given the recent revelations about the amount of trust we can put in U.S. government agencies, and a project of this nature in the hands of a U.S. military agency, this should be raising huge red flags in people's minds.
