| Anonymous Coward User ID: 28348701 11/27/2012 08:14 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | [link to www.dailymail.co.uk] Quoting: SheldonCooper The U.S. military has made clear that any future robot weapons systems will always need manual authorisation before opening fire on human targets. The Department of Defense issued a new policy directive saying that any semi-autonomous weapons systems will be designed so they need human authorisation to open fire. The promise comes after a Human Rights Watch report called for an international ban on 'killer robots', which the group warned could be deployed within 20 years. Soon after that report was published, Deputy Defense Secretary Ashton Carter signed a series of instructions 'to minimise failures that could lead to unintended engagements or to loss of control' of armed robots. Policy directive 3000.09 says: 'Semi-autonomous weapon systems that are onboard or integrated with unmanned platforms must be designed such that, in the event of degraded or lost communications, the system does not autonomously select and engage individual targets or specific target groups that have not been previously selected by an authorised human operator.' In order to make sure this is the case, the Pentagon asks that the hardware and software controlling robot weapons comes equipped with 'safeties, anti-tamper mechanisms, and information assurance'. They must also be designed to have proper 'human-machine interfaces and controls'. After seeing what the military and police do in your country presonally I'd prefer a computer to make the decision, that way you might stand a chance... |

Here anyone interested may propose a project, take part in working on it, or fund it, or both. In the network, there are scientists, scholars, researchers, financiers and managers. 2013-2014. New centers working on cybernetic technologies for the development of radical life extension rise. The 'race for immortality' starts. 2015-2020. The Avatar is created -- A robotic human copy controlled by thought via 'brain-computer' interface. It becomes as popular as a car. 2020. In Russia and in the world appear -- in testing mode -- several breakthrough projects: Android robots replace people in manufacturing tasks; android robot servants for every home; thought-controlled Avatars to provide telepresence in any place of the world and abolish the need business trips; flying cars; thought driven mobile communications built into the body or sprayed onto the skin. 2020-2025. An autonomous system providing life support for the brain and allowing it interaction with the environment is created. The brain is transplanted into an Avatar B. With Avatar B man receives new, expanded life. 2025. The new generation of Avatars provides complete transmission of sensations from all five sensory robot organs to the operator. 2030-2035. ReBrain -- The colossal project of brain reverse engineering is implemented. World science comes very close to understanding the principles of consciousness. 2035. The first successful attempt to transfer one's personality to an alternative carrier. The epoch of cybernetic immortality begins. 2040-2050. Bodies made of nanorobots that can take any shape arise alongside hologram bodies. 2045-2050. Drastic changes in social structure, and in scientific and technological development. All the for space expansion are established. For the man of the future, war and violence are unacceptable. The main priority of his development is spiritual self-improvement. |

Never mind that he is a pathological liar. |

Operative words: "does not autonomously select and engage individual targets or specific targe groups that have not been previously selected..." So, machine reasons and says, "I have killed humans. You are humans. I kill you." Isaac Asimov rolls in his grave. 1.A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm. 2.A robot must obey the orders given to it by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law. 3.A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Laws.
