Thread Name: BS: Robots at war???
Subject: RE: BS: Robots at war???
Did you see the TV special that demonstrated a robotic recon plane that practically fits into the palm of one's hand? It is programmed then released to fly across mountain ridges to photograph what it 'sees' and return to its sender.
Considering that when one builds a better mousetrap, someone else creates a bigger mouse... it's gonna be a different world out there.
If we could only educate ourselves into an understanding that physical war is archaic, unnecessary and obscene- but NO. War will be around as long as people's adrenal systems get a charge out of it.
