    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 have news about them too: they’re not actually coming anytime soon, it’s all techbro propaganda

          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.

                  Hey, for what it’s worth I think most people here understand you completely. A killing robot is dystopian, and anyone arguing otherwise is being dense as hell.

                    You must not have actually understood him then. He’s said this isn’t dystopian because it doesn’t kill automatically (after also saying it is “alpha dystopian”). It’s still dystopian, regardless of whether it can shoot on its own. Every machine of war is.

            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)_/¯
