эксперты опасаются:
Writing in IEEE Computer, Professor Noel Sharkey, from the University of Sheffield´s Department of Computer Science, along with former Crimewatch presenter Nick Ross and Senior Interpol Advisor, Marc Goodman, warn of a coming robot crime wave in which military and police robots could be open to abuse from criminals.
Building robots is 80% cheaper now than 20 years ago and with the potential increase in production the experts are calling for manufacturers to `think thief´ and plan against crime when they are designing the machines.
чистое кино:
The experts warn that robot crime will take to the air, move on land and plunge deep under the oceans. Currently, Columbian drugs cartels are already using robot submarines to deliver large hauls of cocaine and avoid capture. This year the 6th International Aerial Robotics Competition will challenge competitors to use a micro-air vehicle to penetrate a secure building and steal a flash drive from an office.
великий Лем, то есть, был прав — чем не цитата из его романа:
The authors claim that if manufacturers discard safety and the prevention of crime, crude copies of mechanised police and military devices could be relatively easy to produce. If this scenario became a reality, the experts claim it could lead to terrorism, vandalism and vigilantism.
хотя, конечно, наиболее точно существующий прогресс отражает тот факт, что любых роботов в кино до сих пор играют люди.
