Ich habe dies mit KI markiert, da es zweifellos eine Rolle spielen wird. Ohne alarmierend zu klingen: Ist das nicht der Grund dafür, dass so viele Science-Fiction-Filme so schlecht für die Menschheit beginnen und dann so schlecht ausgehen?

It’s only AI if they are autonomous, and they won’t be. Nobody is rushing to open that Pandora’s Box just yet.
As for what amount to remotely operated robotic soldiers, they’ve been holding the line in Ukraine for years. Sure they don’t look like the Terminator, but conceptually once you’ve got a mobile remotely controlled weapons platform, rather than a munition, it is functionally a combatant.
The Ukrainian ones look like a box on tracks with a machinegun on top. It’s not exactly terrifying to look at but it’ll kill people well enough.
I know this will get a lot of eye roles but this cannot be a good thing. War is timber avoided because of the toll it takes on populations and economies. Sanitizing it with automation on one side of a conflict makes the prospects for war far more appealing for the country deploying the robots.
The obvious concerns around AI being involved and any of this working „autonomously“ make the hair on the back of my neck stand up. I’m not an alarmist but I’ve spent 50 years writing code and dealing with tech and I don’t trust AI and have seen it fail as many times as it succeeds. Is this a future we want as a society?
