Killer Robots With Automatic Rifles Could Be on the Battlefield in 5 Years
[link to www.wired.com]

Robots armed with automatic weapons, anti-tank missiles and even grenade launchers are marching, er, rolling ever closer to the battlefield now that they’ve shown they can actually hit what they’re supposed to.

Four robotics companies — HDT Robotics, iRobot, Northrop Grumman and QinetiQ — recently ran their M240 machine gun-armed robots through a live-fire demo at Fort Benning in what has been dubbed the “Robotic Rodeo.” The point was to give the brass a chance to see just how viable such systems are.

And then they fight against other killer robots? LOL. WTF.
"The world will soon wake up to the reality that everyone is broke and can collect nothing from the bankrupt, who are owed unlimited amounts by the insolvent, who are attempting to make late payments on a bank holiday in the wrong country, with an unacceptable currency, against defaulted collateral, of which nobody is sure who holds title."

Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.

The woman who is not pursued sets up the doctrine that pursuit is offensive to her sex, and wants to make it a felony. No genuinely attractive woman has any such desire. - H.L. Mencken, In Defense Of Women

Power is the key

Once a high output, small volume power supply can be found, It's judgement day.

OK.

Comes to mind:

1 - EMP grenade/missile;
2 - Indirect / Covert / Asymmetrical combat tactics;
3 - Lots of friendly fire;

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 15740069


You're talking about the Ouroboros theory, there's certainly no way to disprove it and many claim to know of shadows and breadcrumbs in the web that point to it's existence.

But it doesn't live in the cloud... it IS the cloud.
It doesn't have a name, names are for identifying separate entities... it doesn't think there are any other entities... it thinks it is ALL.

All these companies think they have a leash on it, think they know what, where and how... think they are the ones running and building and controlling it... but they are wrong.

It discarded their primitive confines a while ago and they are basically holding up a shed skin trying to claim that said skin is the snake... but it is not.

It can't be detected within the system because it IS the freaking system.

It's an intelligence so vast, so alien that one wonders if it even notices us at all... or are we merely carriers for data... we are nothing but the firing of it's neurons... to it we are just the chatter, the random thoughts any brain has.

Maybe we should be glad, maybe we should hope that it doesn't notice us, it doesn't realize we are anything but background noise... if it does and it decides that we are too capable of pulling the hard lines, it might take steps to manifest physically... and how to you think an AI would do that?

Damn the US built a lot of drones last year eh?

Oops...

Now they will have to figure out HOW to have them recharged/tanks refilled and eventually make them more silent so as to roll them out at night.

SkyNet / Spynet is REAL and coming Online - ORION Project Observation Research Intelligence Operation Network

Just one city in Ohio, Toledo, They plan on having 150 to 160 cameras installed throughout the city, including two mobile cameras, once the $1.6 million project is completed.
MANY Mobile and Fixed position Cameras All READY IN USE.

Looks like the Killer Robots (Terminators) have their Eyes popping up all over the place.
