Autonomous Killing Robots, should they be banned?

"The robot could take a bullet in it's computer and go berserk"

You're kidding right? This from a professor of AI and robotics?

I think he's confusing Short Circuit with real life. If a robot takes a bullet "in it's computer" (system on chip, I guess) it will stop working. End of. There is literally 0% chance that a bullet could change a programs logic in such a way as to "go berserk" but otherwise keep functioning.

True, any physical damage wouldn't change the programing. Hacking into it would, assuming these robots still connect through wireless, or if it gets captured.

"Laws of war"-always tripped me out the Geneva Convention n what not-Are there rules for war because of the Nazis' and the Japs' brutality??
War = Retardation

Why not just tell everyone that they are pawns in a giant game played buy assholes who create the illusion of conflict and that this dance is a necessary evil if you want to keep having cold beer and new televisions??

This is going to be the focus of my grad studies. That said, I am in agreement with you.
