Robots are terrifying. Nobody will say the contrary except robot scientists or somebody who has been replaced by a terrifying robot. Slaughterbots are totally crazy. Think we’re overreacting?

Slaughterbots is a disturbing short film by the group behind the “Campaign to Stop Killer Robots“. But sorry guys, it’s too late, you can’t actually stop autonomous weapons anymore.

Slaughterbots, autonomous weapon, killer drones,  These unstoppable drones will kill you
Slaughterbots: These unstoppable drones will kill you
