Where’s Elisabet Sobeck when you need her?
A civilization that uses these weapons isn’t worth defending.
Wake up babe, new way to genocide brown people just dropped.
Brown people today
Testing armed robot dogs in the Middle East instead of the US is pretty telling.
Can’t be accidentally murdering Americans with a software glitch.
Which is wild when you add perspective using facts like the police in the US are less disciplined than troops overseas and tbe US still uses substances banned by the Geneva Convention on its civilian population. So if even the US wwon’t test it on their own people, it’s bad.
Really has a strong “testing in production” vibe
“Testing facility” in Gaza, just like how Israel do.
“Accidentally.”
Totally cool.
Coolcoolcoolcoolcool…the future is gonna be hella-fucked.
Oh it was already tremendously fucked. This is just gravy on top.
Fuckin killbots. Coming soon to the 1033 program and thus, your local police department. The Boston Dynamics: Wardog!
We should never have moved away from sticks and stones tbh. Anything that works at long range makes people misunderstand what war is. War needs to look disgusting, because the more clean and automated it looks, the less horrible it looks to people spectacting it. But it is indeed just as horrible as beating someone to death with a rock.
Without reading the article can I take a wild guess and say this is from “we promise never to make weaponized robots” Boston Dynamics?
A promise from a corporation is just a lie by another name.
Alternative facts
Ghost Robotic. Boston Dynamic aren’t the only one making robot dog though, China already have a couple of copy cat(dog)
Glad to be wrong! Although we still have armed robots so maybe not too glad lol
Has the Army watched like… any sci-fi ever?
Shh…let it happen…
I mean, I’d rather not be hunted down by an AI robot dog, but you do you.
It’s happening anyway. We build them. Others build them in response because they have to. The sophistication of killbots will increase. Terrorists will get hold of them eventually. They’ll be hacked and turned on their handlers and/or civilians.
All this is on top of ever increasing climate catastrophe. Look at Appalachia. The topography of those mountains was just rewritten. Whole towns erased like they were never there.
That’s not a reason for me to want it to happen. Which was your original post’s suggestion.
My first post was about letting the army fuck around and find out. Let the natural course of events remind them of those scifi movies they forgot about.
They’re the ones fucking around, we’ll be the ones finding out
Let them fuck around and find out to the tune of how many lives?
Thousands at least. The more effective the killbots are the more money our war economy will throw at warbot R&D.
This is happening. Nothing on this planet can stop it.
Not that it matters, but didn’t the UN already ban lethal autonomous robots?
So if a robot commits a war crime, they can just blame it on AI and call it a day, right? Sounds like an easy way to do whatever the fuck you want.
Is this their way of exterminating civilian populations like the Palestinians without dropping bombs and contributing so significantly to climate change?
“The US military has been adopting a new climate friendly mindset and approach to international conflict. With this invention we can help our genocidal colonies acquire more land with little to no carbon emissions. We plan to be carbon-neutral by 2050, provided no one retaliates and attacks back.”
They should name the dogs “Terror Nexus”
Like an ED-209 situation?
FFS…
