Scientists warn that giving control of nuclear weapons to artificial intelligence could lead to nuclear war
Scientists have warned that control of nuclear missile being handed to artificial intelligence could lead to a 'Terminator-style' apocalyptic war.
Top nuclear scientists have warned that the technology could turn on humans like in the famed Arnold Schwarzenegger 'Terminator' films.
A report by experts at Cornell University warns that an increasing 'automation bias' could allow machines to 'slip out of control.'
Russia and China may be putting more faith in the technology in order to catch up to America's capabilities, despite unfathomable risk.
It says military powers might be lulled into believing AI is the safest route but the technology can bring 'insidious risks that do not manifest until an accident occurs.'
The scientists note that Russia has already started developing an autonomous nuclear torpedo, called Poseidon or Status-6, which they believe could start a trend.
