I’m not sure how I feel about it, but I heard the argument made that AI maybe would be better for killing. People mess up all the time and misidentify threats which causes collateral damage in conflicts often. AI in theory could be much better at this identification process.
It’s kind of the same argument with self driving cars: we freak out whenever they get in an accident, but people causing thousands of accidents a day doesn’t cause an outage.
Not saying I necessarily agree with either argument, but they do make me question how we think about and evaluate technology.
