I can't be the only one who immediately thought of "Robocop".@Fragarach @mattsheffield Yup, but instead of Robocop, it’s ED-209.

The stupidity and corruption of Pete Hegseth knows no bounds. In the latest instance, the AI company Anthropic says it doesn't want its products to have full autonomy to guide weapons since it doesn't think the software is reliable enough.
Hegseth is threatening to terminate Anthropic's contract because of this stance. He wants a product known to be unreliable to control weapons.

@mattsheffield It's about laying grounds for the massive taxpayer bailout of AI that's going to take place. Having AI systems "part of National Defense" will ensure the GOP and TFG have talking points to shove the largest billionaire bailout in history down everyone's gullet.

@mattsheffield That’s not stupidity, that’s weaponized ideology. They’re signaling that they don’t tolerate any lack of obedience, even rationaly motivated.
Plus, my guess is that they don’t care the efficacy of the weapons in a war of terror. If it misses, it’s not their fault, and it’s a normal parameter.
