Speaking of grey-goo and self-replicating robot swarms...
"According to an article in Nature, Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s Center for Bits and Atoms (CBA) has developed self-replicating hierarchical modular robotic swarms...."
I have to wonder... if such tech will ultimately render (or has rendered?) the 2A as moot?

I've seen the Terminator movies and things don't end well.
I posted on the Ukraine thread. We are really close to building first generation terminators: autonomous drones with AI target identification and programmed rules of engagement.
With both sides in Ukraine using jamming to defeat remotely operated drones there's real pressure to make them operate autonomously, and the AI to do that exists already
It's not hard to create AI that can recognize a person, determine if they are in uniform, work out if they are friend or foe, determine if they are armed, determine if they are firing their weapons, and then apply that information to various pre-set programmed rules of engagement.
If Ukraine war goes on another year or two I expect both sides will deploy terminators, if they haven't already, meaning robots that autonomously hunt and kill people.

Then you'll have issues with targeting medics, which means they'll have to write a 'if there's a red cross or crescent, don't attack', then all the sudden, everyone is a medic. :D

..... then all the sudden, everyone is a medic. :D
Sounds like Antifa during the summer of love...
I still laugh at the 'medics' putting a tourniquet on a guy's leg who got winged by a rubber ball round.....for what amounts to an abrasion that really isn't even bleeding...

Asked it some random things, like recipes, or thoughts on what fruits go with cereal...
Kinda weird, but strangely accurate and interesting ...

Uncle Sugar handing out bags of cash to companies developing AI and ML bots which will scour the web, including "fringe" websites (like WaGuns ) for disinformation.

Was this guy the original inspiration for the NPC cartoon?

I hate math, so let AI do it for me.... and... HO-LEE FUK... I knew it was bad, but I didn't think it was this bad....
Why is there such a huge disparity?

Where are the REAL community leaders that are willing to step up and tackle this issue?

"If We Go Ahead On This, Everyone Will Die' Warns AI Expert Calling For Absolute Shutdown"
"Visualize an entire alien civilization, thinking at millions of times human speeds, initially confined to computers—in a world of creatures that are, from its perspective, very stupid and very slow.”
The AI will expand its influence outside the periphery of physical networks and could “build artificial life forms” using laboratories where proteins are produced using DNA strings.
The end result of building an all-powerful AI, under present conditions, would be the death of “every single member of the human species and all biological life on Earth,” he warned."

Wouldn't it be easier for AI to just brainwash the stupid sheeple of this world into carrying out its orders/wishes? People are so much more easily/quicly manipulated than science/protiens/dna etc.
A whole fleet of "snowbots" is just waiting to be trained.
