Upcoming Military Robot Could Feed on Dead Bodies

[Turf1600]

Guys - it doesn't JUST feed on dead bodies. And seriously - I don't think they have ai that's well developed enough to have these kinds of robots seek out organic material and eat it.

It would need some kind of ax attachment to chop the bodies up first. Because you know there is no way it's eating a body whole. It'd be more like CHOP CHOP CHOP, MUNCH MUNCH MUNCH.

Larry King is fucked.

haha i like it! very close to the moral schemes used by warriors of the past to terrify enemies (ie Vlad the impaler, etc)

i cant think of a better way to scare your enemies then by eating the bodies of the ones you ve just killed.

I like how PSLoan is defending the War of the World botZ.

Well fuck man everyone else is putting on their aluminum foil caps and yelling rapture. It's not like they've developed a corpse eating war machine with a mind of it's own. In fact, based on the drawings the thing looks like it's only good for rolling around and eating grass. It's the robot equivalent of a cow with some cameras on it. Big fucking deal.

The sad thing about this stuff is that we dont know what we're capable of. The government has probably had this technology for 30 years.

I guess you didn't see the chainsaw mounted near the claw?

Sounds like something from "Screamers".

I was thinking about this topic all day and decided if they could make mobile suits instead i would join in a heartbeat. something like this

[Desaevious]

Gundam status mobile suits. I'd rock a Leo and still be happy.

We are getting to the point where the government isn't that far ahead anymore. Tech is moving much faster now and much more within the private sector.

I really dont want this to happen
