I came across this post a while ago and haven’t gotten a chance to write about this yet… I find it a little strange that the US military has a budget of hundreds of billions and they can’t even create a decent firewall for their combat drones… This worries me because these drones are going to get bigger and more powerful, so its probably only a matter of time before one gets “hacked” and turned on us… Its like Battlestar Galactica, they created the cylons (for those who haven’t seen the show, cylons are bipedal sentient machines) as a work force, I’m sure at first they seemed very benign, but in the end humanity is decimated by their creations.
We ought to be very careful going forward…
