UN Report Claims Terrorists Actively Seeking to Build Deadly Army of Intelligent Killer RobotsBy Joseph Jankowski UN officials recently held an urgent meeting in Geneva to discuss the threat posed by autonomous murdering machines that are capable of killing without human oversight. The UN is worried that killer robotic technology developed by advanced countries could seep out and end up in the hands of terrorists. Whilst these [robotic killing] systemsmight be available to technologically advanced countries in an initial phase, it islikely that they will proliferate, it said in thereport. Terrorists are in fact activelyseeking such systems, the reportcontinues. Illegal transfers might mean that LAWS would becomeavailable to non-state actors [terrorists]. It was noted there may be no incentive for such actorsto abide by international norms and this may further increase global or regionalinstability. To get a glimpse of what these killer robots could look like, take a look at these videos from engineering and robotics design company Boston Dynamics. Just the fact that these robots exist could be enough to frighten the average human, let alone thinking that they could be equipped with weaponry. The UN report goes on to say, swarms of such systems withcomplementary capabilities may carry out attacks. In these scenarios where swarmsof LAWSact as force multipliers, it would be unclear how meaningful humancontrol could be maintained over the use of force, especially as the available timeframe for human intervention is likely to be restricted. Just last year a group of scientists and other prominentfigures signed an open letter warning against the dangers of starting a global arms race of artificial intelligence technology unless the United Nations supporteda ban on weapons that humans have no meaningful control over. The signees of the letter include billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk, physicist Stephen Hawking. Joseph Jankowski is a contributor for Planet Free Will.com.

More scare-mongering from our friends at the UN, because the rubes must be kept constantly afraid. I am so sure. They refer to themselves and people dont even realize. The true terrorists are the ones screaming terrorist welcome to dystopia.
