    Ok…let’ssay this goes EXACTLY as planned. Nothing wrong. No mistakes.

    So these robots are marching towards a war in a formation of 50,000 robots.

    And then the enemy releases their army of 50,000 robots.

    They both shoot each other. Now there’s 100,000 broken robots in a field. Ok, now what? What did that accomplish?

    And remember, that’s BEST case scenario. Where no robot malfunctions. No AI is fed garbage data. No robots are hacked. And every robot has a 1:1 kill ratio.

    There’s a LOT more that can go wrong, but my main question is, how do robots fighting robots in a war do anything at all?

      Depends on whether or not the troops watching the robots get to yell racial slurs at each other over the internet while it’s going on.
