Artificial Intelligence -- seems like an outdated word -- because its end result is so far beyond human intelligence -- and in fact beyond the collective intelligence of mankind. So in reality it should be given a better term -- something like 'Real Intelligence' or 'Advanced Intelligence'.

These tactics -- along with pilotless planes are changing the world.

Along with this -- and perhaps all the more equal to it -- are the advancements in Biotics. Arms, and legs, and eyes ... are being replaced with Biotics that far exceed the original in all aspects that we can measure them.

As one link below suggests..

The soldier breathes loud and fast as he lays a timed charge on an explosive in a Baghdad street. “I want these people to know if they’re going to leave a bomb on the side of the road for us, we’re just going to blow up their f****** road,” he growls, walking away. Before he can reach safety, an Iraqi punches a code into a mobile phone. The explosion sends the soldier flying in a cloud of dust and debris.
The opening eight minutes of the Oscar-nominated movie The Hurt Locker bring to light the terrifying work of bomb disposal units. The special effects may be Hollywood, but there is no exaggerating the horror of IEDs, the improvised explosive devices that are by far the biggest killers of British and American troops in Iraq and Afghanistan.

HURT LOCKER..good movie and directed by a female..

Whoa now!!!!

Remember, there is technological advancements and then there's Hollywood's interpretation.

Remember, we're only as good as our last mistake!

I'm STILL waiting for my freaking JET PACK!
