Slaughter BOTS (AI drones) Capable of targeting you based on politics, beliefs, social media, etc.

A UC Berkeley computer science professor helped to create a video that imagined a world where nuclear weapons were replaced by swarms of autonomous tiny drones that could kill half a city and are virtually unstoppable.

Stuart Russell, the professor, said these drones are already a reality.

The video takes the viewer to an auditorium where a speaker showcases a drone roughly the size of a mockingbird. At one point the drone lands on his hand, the speaker quickly recalibrates it and then throws it out into the audience again. After a few seconds, the small drone turns back to the stage and crashes into the forehead of a dummy standing off to the left of the speaker.

The demonstration was meant to show how a palm-sized drone is capable of penetrating a human’s skull and destroying “the contents" inside.

The video was released earlier this month by the Future of Life Institute, which is backed by Stephen Hawking and Elon Musk. It was presented by Russell at a United Nations Convention on Conventional Weapons in Geneva, according to The Mercury News.

“Trained as a team, [the drones] can penetrate buildings, cars, trains, all while having the capacity to evade any countermeasure. They cannot be stopped,” the speaker told the audience in the video.

He noted that “a $25 million order” can now buy a swarm of such tiny “slaughterbots” that could kill half a city.

Russell said that although A.I.’s “potential to benefit humanity is enormous, even in defense,” allowing the widespread use of machines that “choose to kill humans will be devastating to our security and freedom.”

“Thousands of my fellow researchers agree. But the window to act is closing fast,” he said.

Welcome to the present day future gents.

We need to fight the evil empire we need to rage againts the Machines!

I think Canada will implement these babybots.

Someone used the wrong pronoun or expressed concern about letting jihadists, who have been raping and murdering, come back to Canada?

Carrier has arrived.

XBox, Microwave, hair dryer, can opener, rice steamer. See? I can type random technological things too.

Yes you make yourself look like an idiot.

 

[InternetHero]

lol Mankind has finally advanced to the point where things do not suck so bad, and now, scientists are racing to create the biggest swarm of omnipresent, aerial death-bots possible.

Are you kidding me human race?

 

[mcveteran81]

I know right? I mean, @mcveteran81 and @Scyther have to know that this is exactly why people think Christians are as mentally deranged as Extremist Isis types. Every time they get wind of a new technology, they get scared and instantly label it as "mark of the beast" nonsense. Every single time. It really gets old. You just can't go around claiming every technology is the work of the devil.

Are you always such a god damn idiot? Where is my claim? Oh there's not? Please keep being just like @7437 and pretend drones aren't a threat, I mean we use them all the time in Syria to kill terrorist already

Both of you are dumber then a bag of sackless dicks.

Many a day have I wished for the techno simplicity of 1937. This is one of those days.

Until you realize that in 1937, less than 20% of the US had full plumbing, 75% of the country was agrarian, and there was a good chance that in just 4 years your ass was likely to be sent to war.

Did you you just make equal being Christian with being an Isis extremist?

Curious whether you are a racist or practice self-hatred.

Don't ever underestimate the defense sectors focus on their respective stock prices.

What is the excuse for the scientists?

A delusion harder to grasp to be sure.

There's not a lot of great paychecks in science.

I would imagine they seek some other dark gratification.

We can understand the martial and greed aspects of the picture, but scientific excess I may be something harder to put our minds around.

Perhaps, perhaps.

The funny thing about the idea of swarms of drones doing a task was demonstrated and reduced to practice by the smartest classmate from my ugrad program.

For the lulz, there is an youtube video that links the same guy to being responsible for a Terminator like future (search Skynet and drones). LOL.

And yet without casualties, we could stay in Vietnam or Iraq forever.

You are not being realistic. Effectiveness. They would not be effective. Not currently. No casualties? Sure. We would gain nothing though, as they would have shot down the drones as fast as we can make them.

You need to leave science fiction behind, we are years away from being able to replace soldiers with ai.

People who think Christians are mentally deranged will think so whether we talk about the mark of the beast or not. They have the view that existence was created from nothing (the Big Bang) while we hold the view it was created by a being called God.

And no we do not call every new technology "the mark of the beast" that wouldn't even make sense. For instance, how would a self-driving car be the mark of the beast? For the most part Christians believe the RFID chip will be the mark of the beast.

Also, of course not every technology is the work of the devil and Christians do not claim this, heck Christians use this technology. What Christians foresee is this new technology being used for evil purposes. Heck even secularists see it and many authors have foreseen it, thus, the many books and movies predicting things such as robots killing people, and swarms of autonomous flying jets killing people without due process.

Yet you two in this thread and others are constantly railing against all forms of advanced technology. Every. Single.One.

Yes, we use drones, the size of small fucking planes.. Remote controlled by HUMANS. That is a massive difference to palm sized kill bots using autonomous AI. The two are totally different, and you know it.

Christ man, a Palm sized drone with conventional locomotion can not even gain enough speed to kill a man, they are not fast enough.

Your just a dickless fundamentalist, who wants to go back to misogynistic medieval Christendom, so you can keep your women in what amounts to slavery, and be free from evil Mark of the beast technology, which just so happens to be everything with an electric current in your deluded mind. I am glad Christians like you are not in control of anything. Ass holes like you would ban life saving tech, ban things like Gene Editing/Crisper which will lead to the elimination of many problems. Case in point. They are researching on how to use it to eliminate hearing loss! That is massive and awesome! Yet fundamentalist assholes like you would ban it. https://www.pri.org/stories/2015-11-28/scientists-say-they-have-new-cure-hearing-loss

Or this guy. http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/...s-scientists-gene-editing-20171114-story.html Crisper is in it's infancy now, but in years to come it will be able to be used for far more then just a handful of diseases. Human suffering will go do, and we will unlock the secrets of aging, and finally deal with the disease that is aging



That right there is why i support Crisper, and will never support fundamentalists like you, who would destroy our advancements out of ignorant fear.

Look at the bullshit they espouse. Same kind of ignorant stupidity as practiced by ISIS and extremist Islam, with their rejection of science and technology. Look at the words they use, likening it to mark of the beast.. I mean that is the height of ignorance.

 

[Kframe]

Yes you make yourself look like an idiot.

No more idiotic then the guy i quoted just randomly typing pieces of technology.

Ffs you're a hysterical bitch. Stop flailing & blowing hard. Glad you believe in the unfailing benevolence of mankind to use everything for handholding and kumbaya singing. Being niave and having dissonance is a great look for you're twat ass.

The fact that modern day drones are capable of what specialists, university, and leading AI entrepreneurs are warning us about, yet you (a fucking nobody) says oh no, this will never happen!? Lmao!

And you wonder why several other posters in this thread regard you're opinion as little more then being an intellectual hack.

Don't worry buddy, no slaughterbot will ever target you because you are of literally no intellectual threat outside of being a lemming.
