BLEH!
Thats... terrifying. The noise, too!

I am not a doomsayer, but I have a firm belief that if "scientists" are not careful enough (and by the very difinition and all the history of humanity - they are not), such machines might become our undoing.

Even without any AI included things can get pretty messed up.
I guess the current race is to have the first robot that can be a better soldier than any human, since all the big continents seem to flex theirs to each other.

Don't need A.I.
All you need is some dxckhead uploading a "virus" that causes the machine to kill everything and we have a major "incident" on our hands.

I think the marketing men are even worse than the scientists. "New gizmo? Let's put it on the cloud because the IoT is trending now. What could possibly go wrong?"

There is no doubt these things will one day be on our streets for law enforcement
Not sure if in our lifetimes, but it's almost certain the government / military will see massive potential once they're ready
A farmers tractor was the idea behind the first tank

Better learn how to build your personal EMP gun guys 😉

One thing comes from my mind upon seeing this (though this is a manned unit):
Walker Gear from MGS: Tha Phantom Pain

Good done,but EMP is good in cities.On the battlefield will be hard.
We are not doomed,but our children and so on.
AI neural is the most dangerous thing,soon will they have capacity to think alone and then humanity is doomed. (Matrix its not just a movie,its a future view of the world of technology)

and what logic are you using to come to this conclusion? Like any intelligent creature it would come to the conclusion that we do. That yes we could go off and kill those people there but what is the risk reward to us? Does just killing them benefit us enough for it to be worth the risks or would it be better to reach diplomatic or symbiotic relationship status with them?
I know that decades of film and TV have programmed us to believe that all AI will just set about killing us but it's a bit of a stupid conclusion to come too frankly.

AI will never be able to 'think' for themselves like humans, they will always rely on a set of instructions that humans gave them, from those instructions they will be able to make calculated decisions on problems but never actually 'think' for themselves
They will have no real hatred, empathy, jealousy, anger or any other human emotion, just "This is the problem presented to me", "These are the choices I have from the code I have pre-programmed", "so this seems the best solution to execute for the scenario"
So unless we code them to be able to go kill, which we will, then they would never choose that themselves from non lethal coding

Well, we have surpassed many of Star Trek's technology so I suppose anime is next!
:supercool

Not even close tbh. Where's my instant food machine? Without that, we're not going anywhere.
