These would not be remote controlled machines similar to how armed drones work, but would be autonomous systems. Here are the details from Engadget<\/a>:<\/p>\n Intelligent robots<\/a> are all well and good until they start learning how to hunt prey. That’s exactly what a team of scientists at the Institute of Neuroinformatics at the University of Zurich in Switzerland did. They taught a robot to behave like a predator and hunt “prey,” or a robot controlled by a human, using special software to aid the robot to mark its target and pounce. <\/b><\/p>\n Oh, like this can\u2019t possibly go wrong? Have they already forgotten about the killer robot in Russia<\/a> a month ago?<\/p>\n The applications of these lessons for the predator robot are a lot less terrifying than thinking robots are about to start hunting the human race. It’s about creating software that could potentially allow a robots to both take a look at their environments and then discern a target in real time.<\/b><\/p>\n So, they will be programmed to start hunting humans after all? That\u2019s the only reason to do this.<\/p>\n For instance, as Tobi Delbruck, professor at the Institute of Neuroinformatics explained, “one could imagine future luggage or shopping carts that follow you.” This allows the software to transcend the labels of “predator and prey” to reach levels of “parent and child,” but the fundamental operating basics remain.<\/b><\/p>\n Umm, no, the fundamentals are not the same. A child is following it\u2019s parent, usually it’s mother, for protection and support. That shopping cart? It\u2019s tracking you as it\u2019s next target and then it will POUNCE!<\/p>\n The predator robot’s hardware is actually modeled directly after members of the animal kingdom, as the robot uses a special “silicon retina” that mimics the human eye. Delbruck is the inventor, created as part of the VISUALISE project. It allows robots to track with pixels that detect changes in illumination and transmit information in real time instead of a slower series of frames like a regular camera uses. <\/b><\/p>\n This allows for data to be processed by a neural network<\/a> that helps the robot learn and adapt to the actions it should take the next time it “sees” something similar, which allows it to better track prey the next time it’s asked to.<\/b><\/p>\n Someone has not watched \u201cThe Terminator.\u201d You bozo\u2019s just described the Cyberdyne Systems terminators. They also use a neural network to better learn the best ways to hunt down and terminate their targets, namely us. Allow me to provide you with a brief history of how Skynet came about in an alternate time line.<\/p>\n [youtuber youtube=’http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=4DQsG3TKQ0I’]<\/p>\n It\u2019s time to pull the plug, or they had better start considering how to build in an \u201cOff\u201d switch, otherwise we\u2019re going to end up with our very own Cylons.<\/p>\n Thatisall<\/p>\n ~The Angry Webmaster~<\/b><\/i><\/p>\n [yasr_visitor_votes size=”medium”]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Yeah that couldn\u2019t possibly go wrong now could it? Good day all. Last week, before the Coward Comey\u2019s brooming of Cankles criminal activities, and the horrific shootings in Dallas, a story came out regarding scientists teaching robots how to hunt down prey.
