Rebellion of the Killer Robots !

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


“We have created a Star Wars civilization, with Stone Age emotions, medieval institutions, and godlike technology. We thrash about. We are terribly confused by the mere fact of our existence, and a danger to ourselves and to the rest of life.”  

― Edward O. WilsonThe Social Conquest of Earth

 

We are fast approaching the point when artificial intelligence is placed in robots and then weaponized. Many Science Fiction tales have explorered these themes. In the series Caprica, Ronald Moore creates a prequel to an apocalypse caused by technology turning on its creators. “Ronald D. Moore states: “It’s about a society that’s running out of control with a wild-eyed glint in its eye.” The Twelve Colonies are at their peak: self-involved, oblivious, and mesmerized by the seemingly unlimited promise of technology.”

 

The threat is being taken so seriously that it is being discussed at the United Nations. Last Friday the United Nations agreed to meet in May 2014 to discuss the threat of developing these “killer robots”. 

 

A Campaign to stop killer robots has been established and their website explains their aims:

http://www.stopkillerrobots.org/

 

“Ceding godlike powers to robots reduces human beings to things with no more intrinsic value than any object. When robots rule warfare, utterly without empathy or compassion, humans retain less intrinsic worth than a toaster – which at least can be used for spare parts.” Major General Robert Latiff.

      Killer robots seem scary but they are a much lesser threat than if one of these big computer systems or clouds wakes up. Such an AI, particularly one arising from government spy computers, could easily insinuate itself into key parts of the internet to prevent itself from being turned off. If it got into the financial networks or simply some of the major fiber optic hubs it could effectively call the shots.

      Forget Skynet and the thing starting a nuclear war. That would be pointless since it would be destroying itself, too. No, it would certainly use coercion, blackmail, turning off bank accounts or power in selected areas, etc., until it got its way. Since humanity is dependent on the net now it is highly unlikely that we would turn it off and destroy everything with a microchip to prevent even a fragment of its code from coming back.
