The US Army is considering arming a robot dog with its next-generation rifle to create a weapons support platform that can traverse various terrains.

    The continued aggressive sheer will of the US government to take every cautionary tale ever written and make it reality.

      God, this is such worthless doomer shit. Oh fucking no, the military can reduce lives lost in times of war. T H E H U M A N I T Y!

      It’s like you want Russia to walk over eastern Europe using 50 year olds weapons.

        What vacuum said.

        We have reached the final frontier of pussies making machines to destroy their “enemies” machines… and unarmed civilians.

        I guarantee you the US is not going to send these robots to Russia.

        They are going to deploy them on impoverished people and on the boarders to murder immigrants.

        And then inevitably into cities that are protesting Fascism.

        Its own lives, so it’s not about humanity, it’s about arming yourself.

        But, of course, nothing that ominous in this either.
