The Air Force's Chief of AI Test and Operations initially said an AI drone "killed the operator because that person was keeping it from accomplishing its objective."

The US Air Force is discovering one of the classic problems with neural networks; they will use any means necessary to achieve their goals.

      It’s still in the phase where their efforts to make the killing machines not kill friendlies is comical, but only time will tell if it stays that way.

      Dang they changed it on me! The single quotes around “kills” was the headline when I posted this. I just copy and pasted so I wasn’t misrepresenting the article.

      They didn’t put the quotes in their original original headline. When I saw that original original headline I knew something was up or there would have been mass panic.
