The main reason for making warrior robots is that by having them fight, they could eliminate the losses of human life due to battles. [Robots, especially in high-risk situa

When considering this topic, what we need to ask is if we are creating something they will end up destroy us? If I create a fighting machine, it has the ability to fight me. If robots are created on the soul purpose of military, then I think no good can come from it. By making something that has the power to take life, or protect it, you are giving it a lot of responsibility. We cannot trust something that does not think to have that much responsibility. If we let the creation become as smart as we are, then should we be using its life, and if it is that smart then could it not conquer us? What I am trying to say is that although the idea to save lives by robot means is a good idea, I just do not think that it can be trusted. Hopefully one day we will be able to stop human deaths in war, but I think by making weapons to keep fighting the battle, even if they substitute in for the humans on the battlefield, will only cause more death and destruction. Maybe someday war will end, but it certainly will not end by making weapons. Robots can and will be used for good, but we just have to be careful and make sure that is all their used for.

tions, will act as “force multipliers” and allow war fighters to project force more directly with less personal less risk. By integrating novel coordination and control methods along increasing levels of automation, military robots will reduce the burden and risk for future war fighters. This will permit the soldiers to provide high-level supervision for generally autonomous multi-robot systems customized for their respective tasks] (Parker and Balch 48). I can understand that robots would be better more efficient fighters, but how do we know that they won’t use these skills to take human life? Instead of fighting the robots versus robots, what if they had them fight humans? This would not stop the man issue of trying to save lives from war, but it would only make it worse. There is no way that anyone can guarantee that these machines would not be used against people. You cannot make them so they only fight other robots because if you can make them fight in the first place, there is a way to make them fight anyone. What if there is a malfunction? What if these malfunctions make them start killing troops, or worse, innocent people. If robots only fought their own kind then there would be no problem, but until there is a way to do this, or if there is even a way to do it, it is to risky. Robots should not be used to fight; they will not save lives but eventually help ca
