Comments on Sysbrain Lets Satellites Think For Themselves
This 'special breed of software agents' is intended to give the satellites circling over your head a bit more autonomy. (Read
the complete story)
| "Gee, what could possibly go wrong here. " (Manion Butler 2/18/2011 10:48:26 AM) |
| "I was also thinking that the power to learn and make decisions autonomously might have unexpected consequences. It's one thing to have a satellite try to move to avoid objects, but what about military satellites with offensive weapons?" (Bill Christensen 2/18/2011 1:10:48 PM) |
| "I don't remember which book or short story this came from but...
"You told the ships computer to read the bible??? You idiot!!!
ship: Let there be light
Reactor goes critical, boom." (Dewtey 2/19/2011 7:43:30 AM) |
| "As soon as reading the headline Skynet came to mind." (Blue Monkey 2/21/2011 2:44:29 AM) |
| "In regards to Dewtey's comment, that reminds me of the movie/book Dark Star. There were intelligent bombs, and one of them did just that...inside of the ship carrying it." (Dr. MorFaux 2/22/2011 9:10:11 PM) |
| "Military satellites with offensive weapons are an abomination of technology, a perversion of human ingenuity that I find intolerable." (Paradox Mind 3/9/2011 7:43:23 AM) |
| "SF writers have thought about military space platforms for a long time. See this article on a space platform from a 1950 short story by EB White, which I think is the first use of the phrase. And yes, it's the same EB White who wrote Stuart Little and other children's stories." (Bill Christensen 3/9/2011 8:06:47 AM) |
