Artificials

I do not have much hope for the future if Dr. Patrick Lin of the Office of Naval Research is issuing reports that artificials or in his term robotic warriors might one day turn on the humans who made them, so therefore must have a strict "warrior code" to keep that from happening.

What utter nonsense and flat world thought.

While I do not have a great deal of respect for swabbies or flyboys in the Navy, I do have a great deal of respect for Naval Intel. They are extremely fine in being the last bastion of America in America, but as they have Dr. Lin issuing such backwards thought, it shows the Navy is on the Obama curve.

This will require some explaining of this as Hollywood has so corrupted people's thought that no one quite gets the point and Dr. Lin appears to be watching too much Summer Glau on the Sarah Conner Chronicles. (I will interject here that the humans on that program should all be terminated as only the artificials are interesting and more human than the humans.)

Artificials, synthetics or metal, depending on the source are not all equal and in Hollywood they are far too flatworld in making them in the image of God. Humans being God's image serve specific purposes, but if you want robotics, a human form is the most vulnerable of forms even if based upon metal.
To explain, the Terminator of Arnold's world, was a cyborg, which means a machine with a "skin" covering. People will remember Robocop as being a literal cyborg in being based upon a dead human with robotics enhancing the cyborg.
To digress, the Bionic Woman and 6 Million Dollar Man, were humans with robotics enhancing them
The true robot is one of synthetic nature, ie, the liquid metal of Terminator or the human like synthetics of Alien.

Getting Hollywood out of the way, the flaws start to appear. The Bionic Woman might have a hand and arm which could lift a car, but the problem is the attaching bone structure, ligaments and muscle of the human body would break and tear away the first time she tried that or attempted to toss a 250 pound body as was shown.
One can attach enhanced eyesight, hearing, scent and speed up to a point, but the human brain will reach a point where it is too slow for the robotics and literally run itself into a wall, killing itself, because the robotics would move faster than the human could think.

The liquid of the synthetic on Alien is also a problem as all liquids will become less viscous in the cold, thereby slowing down the operational features of that type of android, a human featured robot.

Moving onto the Terminator class in both metals of chassis frame and liquid frame. As "John Henry" noted in an episode, he could see artificials as there was nothing in their eyes. It is impossible to create a replica whether cyborg or android as the human face is a muscular communication zone of subtle eye glistening, small facial muscle contractions and the entire package communicates either dullness, friend or foe. An artificial would stand out in any crowd as it's language would produce the same effect in a human knowing a television is not alive.

The Terminator's bases cell structure is synthetic which involves all sorts of things Hollywood has not conceived of as diseases just love any tissue. Tissue needs to be fed and that requires chemical reactions, even if they are synthetic or they will decay as that is the law of this world.

While it is possible to create a non iron life form, such as silicon, it seems everything that is in this world has a number of things which just start eating at it. Even the lovely teflon dulls in time as it ages.

The liquid artificials are interesting as it is possible on molecular levels to program with nanobots a reunification program, so if the liquid was dispersed it would naturally attract to itself again. That though involves base electro magnetic ion type melding which are highly possible, but that equates a vulnerability to anything which can interfere with it.
Distance and space is always a factor, seperate anything far enough from source and it stays seperated.

Nano technologies can indeed build these artificials in blueprint form, but building them in a human form makes the perfect weapon, the imperfect weapon.
Blow off a leg from an artificial and one is left with a hopping weapon. Make a synthetic too light and wind to bombs will blow it away, make it too heavy and water sinks as does mud.
The human ear is a short range sound gathering device. It's eyes are frontal, so vulnerable to reat attack. While capable of numbers of things, it is a finite construction incapable of infinite maneuvers.

Amusing principle is it not, billion dollar artificial warriors all stuck in the gumbo of Montana because it rained.

While it should not be made public I suppose, I make allot of things public, so I will fix the Naval problem from another source in government which fixes things.

First, we forget the human form. It is inefficient. If one wants sex, one instead engineers a prototype body to sex and instead fools the human mind into thinking someone who would never have sex with them is having sex with them.

Second, picture a sphere like a spider's eyes. As we are utilizing a spider, let us go with a spider's leg struture for balance and the ability to traverse great types of terrain as a warrior would be expected.
The legs though, we must make retractable, issuing from the top, as with gravitational drive, we intend to make this robot levitate to fly.

Weapons systems are not old lever action shotguns nor semi auto pistols, but platforms I will not go into here, but have spoken of in other blogs.

The mind center which Dr. Lin is so concerned about is a mere human who sits back at operational command, directing the artificials primary operations. One can give it leeway in neutralizing anything which gets within a 20 yard area if communications are thwarted, but one overcomes the problems of a runaway robot by making it's prime directive command to only be operational in it's GPS nation at war zone.
3 shutoffs on this command and a dual self destruct command and voila, one has something I designed seveal years ago, which I call Nomad, after the Star Trek changeling.

Humans have always evolved to controlling more advanced features of war. There was the horse, then the tank, then the fighter jet, and the soon coming unmanned fighter jets which will be flown by pilots on the ground.
If one does not place computer brains, even those based upon human imprint living tissue in control of armies of robots or inside the robots themselves, but only places within the brain stem scenario of go, stop, fire and hide, then one does not have the remotest possibility of them going renegade.
Nor like illegals, in Barack Obama giving them the vote as they appear like the natives, just like animals should not be mistreated, but they don't have rights either, just laws protecting them from being enslaved........gee and Obama is enslaving them.

In any motherboard we continue, Nomad would be a key part of combat in keeping Soldiers alive. 100 of them would defeat a division with it's synthetic blended camoflague and electronic absorbing signature.

For this reason, artificials have their place in assisting humanity in bit and pieces, as in making the blind see and the lame walk.
Artificials could bring about the futurist world I have written of in machines building machines to serve humans. Humans though need challenges and as a service of robots would grow all food, provide all needs, the human would for value and self worth be required to develop the marketable qualities which would bring in commerce, such as the arts, sports and invention.

This would change the entire world structure as people would not have to the jobs we now think of in order to make a living as robotics would accomplish all of this. So humans would not stagnate though, their prime directives of producing new humans and producing skills which artificials could not and should not be allowed to produce as they are not human.

The world does not need another chimp chewing off some conned woman's face no more than another farmer eaten by a combine. Keep the brains in the humans, keep the artificial intelligence secluded in it's Langley divisions where it can be harnessed to serve humanity, but keep the human brains in charge of the weapons of war.
Humans are the failsafe switch and this is about what is best for humans, and not what a Dr. Lin who is watching Terminator too much is talking about in large reports I paid for which are utter nonsense.
