Even if both sides use machines, that doesn't make it any worse than both sides using humans, on the contrary. But as I said, the wider consequences are a different matter.
- pmelendez 11y agoI think I didn't explain myself clearly... What I meant is that once one side has it, it will go outside of common warfare pretty quickly. You are thinking in Gov. A vs. Gov. B both using machines. My concern is that after that, Gov. B will use machines against humans C inside the same country, or in the neightborhood. And in those cases, "technical errors" can be used as excuse after a tragedy. And that's only one of my concerns... add organized crime and terrorism to the mix and you will have a very explosive soup.
- fauigerzigerk 11y agoI think your assumptions are very realistic and I share your concerns. But looking back at the history of war or combat, I don't feel that human nature has been a mitigating factor. On the contrary.
