The Future of Life Institute released a short
film showing a dystopian future with killer
drones powered by artificial intelligence.
The short is part of a campaign warning about the
dangers of weaponized artificial intelligence and
is designed to draw attention to the issue.

Researchers Create Video to Call for Autonomous Weapons Ban at UN

In response to growing concerns about autonomous
weapons, a coalition of AI researchers and
advocacy organizations released
<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9CO6M2HsoIA&feature=youtu.be>a
fictitious video on Monday that depicts a
disturbing future in which lethal autonomous
weapons have become cheap and ubiquitous.
The video was launched in Geneva, where AI
researcher Stuart Russell presented it at an
event at the
<https://www.un.org/disarmament/geneva/ccw/>United
Nations Convention on Conventional Weapons hosted
by the <https://www.stopkillerrobots.org/>Campaign to Stop Killer Robots.
Russell, in an appearance at the end of the
video, warns that the technology described in the
film already exists and that the window to act is closing fast.
Support for a ban has been mounting. Just this
past week, over

Canadian scientists and over
<https://newsroom.unsw.edu.au/news/science-tech/killer-robots-australia%E2%80%99s-ai-leaders-urge-pm-support-ban-lethal-autonomous-weapons>100
Australian scientists in academia and industry
penned open letters to Prime Minister Justin
Trudeau and Malcolm Turnbull urging them to
support the ban. Earlier this summer, over 130
leaders of AI companies signed
<https://futureoflife.org/autonomous-weapons-open-letter-2017/>a
letter in support of this week’s discussions.
These letters follow a 2015
<https://futureoflife.org/open-letter-autonomous-weapons/>open
letter released by the Future of Life Institute
and signed by more than 20,000 AI/Robotics
researchers and others, including Elon Musk and Stephen Hawking.
These letters indicate both grave concern and a
sense that the opportunity to curtail lethal autonomous weapons is running out.
Noel Sharkey of the International Committee for
Robot Arms Control explains, “The Campaign to
Stop Killer Robots is not trying to stifle
innovation in artificial intelligence and
robotics and it does not wish to ban autonomous
systems in the civilian or military world. Rather
we see an urgent need to prevent automation of
the critical functions for selecting targets and
applying violent force without human deliberation
and to ensure meaningful human control for every attack.”
Drone technology today is very close to having
fully autonomous capabilities. And many of the
world’s leading AI researchers worry that if
these autonomous weapons are ever developed, they
could dramatically lower the threshold for armed
conflict, ease and cheapen the taking of human
life, empower terrorists, and create global
instability. The US and other nations have used
drones and semi-automated systems to carry out
attacks for several years now, but fully removing
a human from the loop is at odds with
international humanitarian and human rights law.
A ban can exert great power on the trajectory of
technological development without needing to stop
every instance of misuse. Max Tegmark, MIT
Professor and co-founder of the Future of Life
Institute, points out, “People’s knee-jerk
reaction that bans can’t help isn’t historically
accurate: the bioweapon ban created such a
powerful stigma that, despite treaty cheating, we
have almost no bioterror attacks today and almost
all biotech funding is civilian.”
As Toby Walsh, an AI professor at the University
of New South Wales, argues: “The academic
community has sent a clear and consistent
message. Autonomous weapons will be weapons of
terror, the perfect tool for those who have no
qualms about the terrible uses to which they are
put. We need to act now before this future arrives.”
More than 70 countries are participating in the
meeting taking place November 13 – 17 organized
by the 2016 Fifth Review Conference at the UN,
which established a Group of Governmental Experts
on lethal autonomous weapons. The meeting is
chaired by Ambassador Amandeep Singh Gill of
India, and the countries will continue
negotiations of what could become an historic international treaty.

From South America, where payment must be made
with subtlety, the Bormann organization has made
a substantial contribution. It has drawn many of
the brightest Jewish businessmen into a
participatory role in the development of many of
its corporations, and many of these Jews share
their prosperity most generously with Israel. If
their proposals are sound, they are even provided
with a specially dispensed venture capital fund.
I spoke with one Jewish businessmen in Hartford,
Connecticut. He had arrived there quite unknown
several years before our conversation, but with
Bormann money as his leverage. Today he is more
than a millionaire, a quiet leader in the
community with a certain share of his profits
earmarked as always for his venture capital
benefactors. This has taken place in many other
instances across America and demonstrates how
Bormann’s people operate in the contemporary
commercial world, in contrast to the fanciful
nonsense with which Nazis are described in so much “literature.”
So much emphasis is placed on select Jewish
participation in Bormann companies that when
Adolf Eichmann was seized and taken to Tel Aviv
to stand trial, it produced a shock wave in the
Jewish and German communities of Buenos Aires.
Jewish leaders informed the Israeli authorities
in no uncertain terms that this must never happen
again because a repetition would permanently
rupture relations with the Germans of Latin
America, as well as with the Bormann
organization, and cut off the flow of Jewish
money to Israel. It never happened again, and the
pursuit of Bormann quieted down at the request of
these Jewish leaders. He is residing in an
Argentinian safe haven, protected by the most
efficient German infrastructure in history as
well as by all those whose prosperity depends on his well-being.

Please consider seriously the reason why these elite institutions are not discussed in the mainstream press despite the immense financial and political power they wield?
There are sick and evil occultists running the Western World. They are power mad lunatics like something from a kids cartoon with their fingers on the nuclear button! Armageddon is closer than you thought. Only God can save our souls from their clutches, at least that's my considered opinion - Tony
