1. What would a killer robot war look like?

Just robots "killing" each other?

[Midnight Writer]

2. I'm afraid not. Ever watch The Terminator?

[Irish_Dem]

4. No, never saw this movie.

I guess it is about robots coming after humans?

15. Do not think "robots". More like advanced landmines as drones ...

... moving around, autonomously searching for the right target. Something like this:

3. i doubt that is the intended use these "killer" robots.

13. Just wondering

what you think these Killer Robots are designed to kill???????

Ants? Cockroaches?

just asking

[Uncle Joe]

5. Eventually if taken to its' fruition,

they will have robots destroying both humans and other killer robots or automated systems.

If artificial intelligence were ever to reach the stage of "self-awareness," and killer robots did dominate the world's armed forces then we could be having a glimpse of the next evolutionary sweepstakes winner.

8. Humans love to kill each other. It will be our downfall.

Right, I wonder what our AI overlords would do to humans.
We would be seen as inferior to them.

6. Well, if they look like number six from Battlestar Galactica, I don't have a problem with it.

12. Good god, what younger gens will have to face..

[Irish_Dem]

Jebus.

11. Glad you posted, I started to but it's not my genre. Scary

14. I am sure that the reason

the" U.S." opposes a Ban on them, is because our Military Industrial Complex has already developed and is testing them..

I think U.S. citizens know about maybe one one thousandth of what is going on in the shadows.
And as my son once said: "And I doubt we would want to know......."
