Of course, not very much like to believe that science fiction writers and directors of war films with human robots are right, but the problem is that their gloomy prophecies come true gradually. Currently under development one of the machines that will fight future John Connor. We are talking about combat unmanned aircraft X-47B.

We are talking about combat unmanned aircraft X-47B.

Despite the fact that such machines are usually called unmanned, in fact, a pilot is present, although it would be truer to call it by the operator. The operator may be halfway around the world, but part of making the machine itself can not fulfill. The most important innovation in a model of X-47B is its high degree of autonomy. This means that the UAV itself carries off, paving the route to the target, striking her own, returned to base and landed.

And the only thing that remains the man - machine programmed to indicate the approximate flight plan and setting the target. This was confirmed by a top manager of Northrop Grumman, Karl Johnson (Carl Johnson): «It is self-performs all calculations and decide what to do next." One can only hope that the algorithms are robust, and none of the X-47B does not go mad and do not declare their goal of "all men." And, frankly speaking, all possible and impossible autonomous vehicles on the order of hitting the target should always be given exclusively by the operator. The machine should not make decisions about the destruction of man, even if you specify the target.
