The Road to the Robot Uprising
« on: July 06, 2016, 11:32:59 PM »
Article title on Syfy's Blastr website: "Scientists developing new AI to let robots 'hunt' their prey like a predator".

What, exactly, about the idea of the robot uprising don't these yutzes understand? Sure, today it's luggage that finds its owner, and shopping carts that follow you through the store. Tomorrow, the program's loaded into vehicles' onboard computers, and it's Stephen King's "Christine" come true.

The first alien ship that shows up, I may go with them. (My luck, it'd be Reavers.)
Linux. Because a world without walls or fences won't need Windows or Gates.

I'm pretty sure that any aliens advanced enough to reach a different star would have been supplanted by their toasters centuries ago.
