- riffraff 12y agoI saw an interesting discussion about this some years ago. One of the person involved pointed out that yes, it does feel worrying to think that a soulless machine may not feel anything while killing people. But on the other hand, if robots were used in place of people, the nanking massacre[0] would likely not have happened. It has historically required humans to really fuck up things.

- jimmaswell 12y agoIs that any worse than if it were humans doing the storming? Probably better because robots aren't going to do extra damage outside the scope of their orders.
