The video and everyone here keeps talking about this as a scary &lt;i&gt;future&lt;/i&gt; dystopia, while Pakistan and many other countries have been living in it for years.&lt;p&gt;Drone strikes are exactly what the video describes: surgical precision attacks from machines with automatic weapons that the targets couldn&amp;#x27;t defend themselves from, used by both governments and terrorists, and routinely relying on mass surveillance for targeting.&lt;p&gt;The weakly conveyed message of the video was that there needs to be a human pressing the trigger so that they can appreciate whether the act conflicts with their values, but we have millennia of evidence that humans can act mindlessly too.</text><parent_chain><item><author>narrator</author><text>It&amp;#x27;s like WWI all over again.  In WWI, people went happily off to war thinking it&amp;#x27;s going to be nice and heroic and adventurous like the good old days and they all get slaughtered in a pathetic pointless way in a blink of an eye by newly developed automated war machinery.&lt;p&gt;The first AI War is going to be a really brutal wakeup call.
