I actually had a nightmare about terminators down the road. The people running things are complete fucking morons and they would no doubt attempt to create such a thing as either a "further step in the evolutionary chain" or as super slaves.
When you all read about future "robots" know that these robots will not be made of metal. That is merely what we are all familiar with and one track of research. The robots they speak of will essential be humans which have had their cognitive functions tweaked. IE: Damaged humans who will lack independence. They will be completely submissive. The population has already been heavily conditioned for this; however further steps are to be made in eliminating cognitive functioning. Fluoride and pharmaceuticals and the like will act upon either the entire brain or selective regions responsible for specific behaviors/functions. I'd end all brain research if I could. The dangers far outweigh any benefits.

QuoteFor example, a robot's computer "brain" would block it from aiming a missile at a hospital, church, cemetery or cultural landmark, even if enemy forces were clustered nearby. The presence of women or children also would spark a robotic no-no.
Don't you love this warm fuzzy bullshit they spew in an attempt to push this? I say hang every fucker involved with this promoting this line of research. Damn my peers to hell for their lack of foresight in their work. I know people who are working on this same kind of thing at Carnegie. This is the biggest problem with modern science. Breaking up and spreading out tasks at different locations such that the MORONIC high functioning worker bee's can't make ethical decisions regarding the negative possibilities of their line of research. These people are like those who sign up for the military to go kill some foreign enemy concocted by the ruling class. Hordes of Don Quixote's. It makes me want to pull my hair out it's so maddening.
funny you should mention dreams but about 4-5 months ago i remember trying to escape one of them with my girlfriend who was completely oblivious to the danger and i only just got away with her. I'm telling you right now the truth is simple and obvious. They intend on killing every one of us. period.
