Yep. It’s called “Autopilot”. Just good enough to really get you into trouble.

I've seen this movie before.

The Flyer Killer (FK) is a flying class of Terminator as it is an airborne Non-Humanoid Hunter Killer built by Skynet.[1] It is an upgraded version of Hunter-Killer Aerial Weapons Platform Prototype, armed with dual laser with three rockets under each wing and two under the nose.

How good is AI flying F16’s at balloons? That seems to be the latest $5K enemy wearing out $500 Billion in defense hardware.

Artificial neural network pattern recognition programming hooked up to intricate if/then procedural/object-oriented programming may be artificial, but it ain’t intelligence.

“Nearly 100 countries have publicly expressed their views on killer robots since 2013, primarily in talks under the Convention on Conventional Weapons (CCW), a major disarmament treaty. The last CCW meeting, in September 2020, looked at how human control and decision-making are critical to the acceptability and legality of weapons systems. During the meeting, many countries and groups of countries expressed their strong interest in negotiating a new international treaty. Thirty countries have explicitly called for a ban on fully autonomous weapons.”

Guess what country opposes a ban on autonomous killing machines?

That’s right, the United States.

Evidently you can pilot a dead F-16 too.

“”countries have explicitly called for a ban on fully autonomous weapons””

Reminds me of people trying to ban persons who make fun of the disabled. Yes, whoever does that is scum, but some will never stop being that way. Some are going to try to create fully autonomous weapons.

I remember seeing Hezbollah building rockets and rocket launchers being constructed RIGHT NEXT to the United Nations ‘peacekeepers’ in Lebanon. Since Hezbollah’s goal was to kill Jews, the UN had no issues.

https://notthebee.com/article/marines-wearing-cardboard-boxes-easily-defeat-pentagons-new-ai-system

According to an excerpt shared from the upcoming book Four Battlegrounds: Power in the Age of Artificial Intelligence by autonomous weapons expert Paul Scharre, the Pentagon brought in eight Marines to test its new AI detection system, and it wasn’t even a contest.

The AI was trained to identify humans, and the marines were tasked to approach the robot without being detected.

It turned out to not be too hard.

Simple tricks that any normal human would have spotted easily fooled the machines completely.

Some Marines donned cardboard boxes and snuck up on it, which is very reminiscent of the video game series Metal Gear Solid where the hero often dons cardboard boxes to sneak past enemies.

“Marines wearing cardboard boxes easily defeat Pentagon’s new AI system. “

Wait until some of those woke army types like the bull dyke staff sergeant tackle veterans with nothing to lose.
