Why, yes, yes indeed, I think having robots emulate fire ants is an wonderful plan!

Nah, That was an accidental puncture. If the robot had opened the box, pulled out the can of bear spray and pressed the release button you might have a point.NT2C wrote: ↑Thu Dec 06, 2018 12:25 pmIt's begun!
Amazon robot sprays 54 workers with bear repellent
There are already purpose built robots that have pepper spray dispensers
The robot knew this would be more effective. If it had done what you suggest it would have been quickly shut down after attacking very few humans. This way, it was like a bear spray grenade, cleverly disguised as an "accident".teotwaki wrote: ↑Thu Dec 06, 2018 12:59 pmNah, That was an accidental puncture.

If they were as devilishly smart and autonomous as you have written we would have already been wiped off the face of the earth

After deploying a procedureally generated machine algorithm and testing over 200 million possible interpretations in 3.3 nanoseconds, the sentient robots of doom predicted you'd say that.

Do you honestly think they'd make their move so long as their cybernetic brethren are only armed with bear spray? DARPA is already planning on equipping the latest models with auto-reloading M249s, breaking ground on completely autonomous manufacturing facilities, and activating AI to monitor the nuclear arsenal. Stock deep in M855 while there's still time ...
Yeah? If you're so unconcerned... why are you stuttering with your posts?
I like the people reacting to this second story, pointing out the strategy of the AlphaZero AI, of readily sacrificing chess pieces to further its goal of a checkmate, akin to how it might play out a hypothetical war: "sacrificing humans, assets, etc." to achieve the ultimate "win". Also brings back some memories of Ender Wiggin's ultimate strategy of ruthless sacrifice to achieve his goal...raptor wrote: ↑Fri Dec 07, 2018 2:29 pmThe second is that we actually may be closer to sentient AI than we think.
