    What the fuck is wrong with you guys. This is absolutely dystopian shit right there.

    This is not “nice” or “neat”?!

    It’s straight up awful. It’s war.

      One can find interest in an objects technological design while still acknlowledging it’s horror when put to practical use. They aren’t mutually exclusive options.

      A system that can maneuver autonomously is dystopian? Lol, what? This system does NOT fire autonomously

      The tank-like robot has the ability to transport itself to a preset destination. It can also spot and avoid obstacles

        It is dystopian. It looks like a alpha version of the robocop “bad” robots. It is indeed dystopian. It doesn’t fire autonomously just because creators could not implement a “directive 4” (don’t shoot who I don’t want to be shoot).

              I believe that wide adoption of self-driving cars will take a while, but there are already autonomous taxis running around San Francisco

                Like the one that drove over that women a few weeks ago, then stopped on top of her and refused to move?

                I don’t know whether to laugh or cry.

                Yeah, and they keep blocking emergency vehicles in intersections and the whole city wants them gone.

                They’re prototypes using real human cities as proving grounds without the consent of the population.

            It is not. Dystopian is an utopia turning bad. There is nothing wrong with AI, it pays my bills. The killing is what turns an utopia to a dystopia. It’s people actions and intentions, not technologies

                • AI and autonomous vehicles: utopia
                • AI and autonomous vehicles to kill: dystopian

                This is one of the most frustrating thread I’ve ever partecipated. Why discussions on weapons always turn out like talking to spoilt 4 years old kids.

                What do you mean? AI is super helpful, it is doing great things in many fields, including biological research, simplify life of many, supporting and helping people. It is just an umbrella name for many different complex mathematical functions.

                Clearly there are bad uses, as any powerful technology. And it is important to highlight them. This is a bad use of AI

              The killing

              Once again, this system does not kill autonomously. It merely drives autonomously.

                It is just because it is currently technically impossibile to make it fires the “right” people. So the human will fire the wrong people as liability for human shooting civilians doesn’t exist. It is anyway dystopian. As said it is an alpha version of the dystopia.

                I really don’t get why it is so hard to understand ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

      Someones going to get themselves killed when the robots take over with that kind of talk.

      I for one welcome our new mechanical overlord’s.
