Killer Robot Takeover is Inevitable

VICE gained exclusive access to a small fleet of US Army bomb disposal robots the same platforms the military has weaponized and to a pair of DARPA’s six-foot-tall bipedal humanoid robots.

We also meet Nobel Peace Prize winner Jody Williams, renowned physicist Max Tegmark, and others who grapple with the spectre of artificial intelligence, killer robots, and a technological precedent forged in the atomic age. It’s a story about the evolving relationship between humans and robots, and what AI in machines bodes for the future of war and the human race.
