Sorry jseal, you've lost me on this one.
They've made the point that the ultimate aim is autonomous fighting machines, basically robot tanks.
Though it's a technically brilliant exercise, autonomous war vehicles are a bad thing.
It's a terrible thing when a human pulls the trigger on another, no matter how neccessary it is.
Just to send out machines to hunt and kill humans without conscience or moral judgement ( which is a slightly different thing) is evil.
And if one goes rogue? Could you count that as friendly fire, given that a killer machine has no friends, just allies.
