    It is dystopian. It looks like a alpha version of the robocop “bad” robots. It is indeed dystopian. It doesn’t fire autonomously just because creators could not implement a “directive 4” (don’t shoot who I don’t want to be shoot).

      So automated driving is dystopian? Brace yourself, I have news about self-driving cars

        It is not. Dystopian is an utopia turning bad. There is nothing wrong with AI, it pays my bills. The killing is what turns an utopia to a dystopia. It’s people actions and intentions, not technologies

            • AI and autonomous vehicles: utopia
            • AI and autonomous vehicles to kill: dystopian

            This is one of the most frustrating thread I’ve ever partecipated. Why discussions on weapons always turn out like talking to spoilt 4 years old kids.

                  Hey, for what it’s worth I think most people here understand you completely. A killing robot is dystopian, and anyone arguing otherwise is being dense as hell.

                    You must not have actually understood him then. He’s said this isn’t dystopian because it doesn’t kill automatically (after also saying it is “alpha dystopian”). It’s still dystopian, regardless of whether it can shoot on its own. Every machine of war is.

            What do you mean? AI is super helpful, it is doing great things in many fields, including biological research, simplify life of many, supporting and helping people. It is just an umbrella name for many different complex mathematical functions.

            Clearly there are bad uses, as any powerful technology. And it is important to highlight them. This is a bad use of AI

              Which altruistic thing is it that the AI that pays your bills does? It appears to me that AI is used for acceleration of war, deceit, and theft and conglomeration of ideas and art with no unique thoughts or perspectives. The people who own the technology will use it to enrich themselves at the expense of those who can not afford it. This is what I mean.

                Some of the models I built help preventing frauds on customers, i.e. help them keeping their money.

                Others support and simplify work of colleagues. There are jobs that are difficult, not pleasant and stressful in my industry, and there is an high demand from people to get help from AI.

                I don’t know your job, but AI can be very helpful improving quality of life of people in many roles.

                BTW AI has been used by artists for years now. I am not talking about generative AI. Photoshop is full of non generative AI tools. Even the spam filters of your email provider are likely nowadays AI.

                You should have a deeper look to all enormous variety of AI applications out there

          The killing

          Once again, this system does not kill autonomously. It merely drives autonomously.

            It is just because it is currently technically impossibile to make it fires the “right” people. So the human will fire the wrong people as liability for human shooting civilians doesn’t exist. It is anyway dystopian. As said it is an alpha version of the dystopia.

            I really don’t get why it is so hard to understand ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
