Onion? No? Great...

Next up "researchers wondered what would happen if they put AI to a machine that can consume humans for energy"

So it's not supposed to be used to eat the dead, good. OMG. It's supposed to eat the life ones!

If I'm gonna be eaten by a robot I'd much rather be dead first.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago

These robots don’t do that part. They will build new robots to make corpses for them.

Has no one played Horizon Zero Dawn?

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 months ago (2 children)

I guess we are in that timeline. Tbh, so many things make a lot of sense now.

I wish we were in the dino robots timeline

Someone put bullets in Ted faro. Literally screwed humanity as a whole...twice.

Years ago I saw an article about a robot designed to hunt and kill insects as a healthier pest control mechanism in farming. That robot would put the insects into a hopper where they would be converted to fuel to run the robot.

I figured it wasn't going to be too long before they'd be eating us.

We're getting closer to a real life paperclip maximizer.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 months ago

We already have it, it's called profit maximizer, also known as capitalism.

Excited for IRL Horizon Zero Dawn.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 months ago (1 children)

At least in Horizon they solved the climate crisis first, before creating the ribits that would wipe out all life

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

Which then caused another a climate crisis

Now just make them sentient and self replicating and….

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 months ago (1 children)

You either get Horizon Zero Down or replicators from Star Gate

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 months ago

Or paperclips!

Finally! A productive solution to mass graves!
