A.I.10c: Robots With An Attitude: Self Learning, Killer & Organic Robotoids
Urupipeṛ2 Ṫẁo
"A Geneva, Switzerland based Catholic news medium, Patheos, reported on December 2, 2015, that killer robots are no longer confined only to Hollywood and science-fiction movies—they are now among us, and they are playing a significant role in fighting terrorism.[51] They have the nickname killer robots (which means that this is a term we will hear about continuously in the media from now on). The purpose of the Patheos article (see footnote) is to show the world what the Vatican’s stance is on this—I will discuss this in a moment.
Using killer robots in wars shouldn’t come as a big surprise to anybody, although few know the extent and the danger of this. The Patheos article claims that many of these killer robots can choose targets without human involvement; i.e. they act with a mind of their own! With no pun intended, humanity is really playing with fire here—the old science fiction classics are about to become reality. Drones are of course already used by the military in the U.S., Russia, China, and the U.K.[52]—drones being a prototype for these kinds of killer robots.
The Catholic Church is speaking out against this kind of warfare, but it’s, of course, just a dog and pony show again. Artificial Intelligence is already used very extensively in wars and in the “War on Terror” in particular. Does this mean that the U.S. is using AI to fight terrorism? Of course!"
