The mines they are preventing are small, they will destroy your foot if you step on it, but not much else. These boots protect your foot.

No, specifics depend on the state but in none are you allowed to shoot someone for entering your yard.

You can't legally shoot someone for entering your yard...thats why he's on trial.

I dont think you understand the word 'accident'.

That's called a bug - aka what it's called when a program behaves unexpectedly and against design intentions.

That's not going rogue, that's doing what it was programmed to do.

By your standards you'd also have to consider WW2 acoustic homing torpedos as rogue AI because they might home in on the ship that fired them.

Edit:

A followup thought: the only real question is whether they can realistically test and refine these systems enough to trust them to carry out attacks autonomously without serious errors.vIm gonna guess no, but they'll use them anyway.

No. Such a thing would only be a good idea if you want the enemy to be able to turn your shit off when they please.

You're thinking of 'AI', as something intelligent that can go rogue. Current and near future that's just sci fi.

Is this just the Texas variant, or every one?

Thermostat isn't an American term.

73 day, 70 night.

I prefer it a little cooler, but my apartment isn't insulated for shit so anything less and the ac basically never turns off.

Hasn't turned off a whole lot with heat waves lately.

Ok, come back when you aren't living in a fantasy land.

You don't want that unless you want the cost of virtually everything to increase.

Don't fuck with the infrastructure that keeps every corner of a country running on a day to day basis.
