Boston Dynamics has made multiple robots for DARPA. If they make a really great platform, I expect they’re probably gonna be weaponized at some point. Maybe not by them, but…
I remember a buddy of mine who was working on an autonomous, self-mapping rover research project at his university on a DARPA project. He was just working on the navigation side, part of a larger project. He was telling me how he had a “huh” moment when they got the first control unit and it had a big red button on it labelled “weapon”.
I say that, but I, in no way, want that to happen.
But yeah, Boston Dynamic have long said that they don’t want their robots weaponised, but here we are seeing it happen.
