Robotic Revenge

I just saw this in my RSS feed from Wired.com:

Israel is worried about Iran launching an all-out, “doomsday” barrage of rockets and missiles. So military leaders have begun early planning for a new, robotic defense system, armed with enough artificial intelligence that it “could take over completely” from flesh-and-blood operators. “It will be designed for … autonomous operations,” the commander of Israel’s air defense forces insists.

O Dr Strangelove, you live again.

    That sounds like a bad idea. Haven’t the Israeli military leaders seen The Terminator? We’re all doomed.
