[Robotgroup] Article: "Ethics of Autonomous Military Robots"

[Sam O'nella]

I will *not*!

j/k

If I actually knew a little more than how to blink an
LED I'd venture off into the robotic vs human
paintball competition.

I figure the government would have an interest in the
project in general and maybe fund it.. could even be
an interesting tv special.  I thought perhaps teams
build the robots for the competition and then have one
person from their team volunteer to be on the human
team (hence all the humans are on one side vs robots).

Anyway I won't go too much into it right now since I'm
trying to recover a server, .. and had a few drinks
while waiting.
