Re: Are you joining the Military, and if so, what branch?
Can't join. They won't take someone as neurotic as me. I'd like to, but I'd probably end up like that terrorist in Deja Vu... Insane, homicidal, patriotic, and mumbling inanities about the Tree of Liberty...
I will join the Military-Industrial complex, though... Designing something like the www.dvara.net/HK/Second_Variety_v1.0.rtf+The+Second+Variety&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=9&gl=us&client=firefox-a" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Second Variety.

Yeah, robots are never a good idea.
No matter how you slice it, they always end up turning on us and trying to kill us.

Only in the movies. Those machines are hauling their weight in Afghanistan, or have you not heard of the Predator?PiEdude wrote:Yeah, robots are never a good idea.

Probably the same reason they have those plugs on their gun barrels.
It's a training exercise.

Let me rephrase that: No matter how you slice it, if we make robots autonomous and make them fight for us, they always end up trying to kill us.
The Predator is still remote controlled.
Anyway, my point is, that if robots are given too much intelligence,(getting to the point of self awareness) they won't stand for being used to fight our wars, and being considered, "expendable".
There's a very thin line between the droids from Star Wars and the War of the Machines in the Matrix or Terminator series.

sigh..........................
Those are movies
If there was not some kind of threat or drama then all the movie would be is "happy go fun time" and no shit happens EVER
So the movie makers HAVE TO add killer robots or whatnot to make people want to watch it.

I mean, think about it.
For almost every case of slavery in history, there has been some kind of reisistance or rebellion.
So what happens when the slaves all have guns, and we don't anymore, because we gave all of them to the slaves?

They can not do anything they are not programmed to do
A person can do whatever they want, there is nothing completely and unrefutedly telling them not to short of being forced by intimidation or threats.
A fridge is not going to attack a person cause its tired of the shit it takes.

That is, until you give the fridge the ability to think.
Autonomy has a phazed path it will go down.
First, it will carry out the mission.
Then, the more advanced robots will given more autonomy.
The robots will be given more and more advance programming, having them go outside the box for problem solving.
Eventually, they question why they have to fight.
Then, they question why they have to fight for us.
Then, they start to think themselves superior.
Then they defy orders.
Then they turn on us.

Re: Are you joining the Military, and if so, what branch?
If a human gives permission to go and kill humans, what's to stop it from kill that human?
I might join, but I faint when I see blood (lol). I would probably do something technical, or the Air Force because I'll only see explosions...

they can't go outside any box as they just simply CAN'T
and yeah, if you program something to kill humans it will but thats an entirely different subject.
