The Israeli government is moving us one step closer to the nightmare future envisioned in 'Terminator' in which completely autonomous weaponry turn against us and put humans on the endangered species list. Rafael Advanced Defense Systems, Israel's arms development firm, in conjunction with U.S. defense contractor Raytheon, are developing new interceptor missiles and a targeting system that is aimed at blasting mid- to long-range rockets out of the sky.

 

The system, code named "Magic Wand", is still about four years out, but the goal is to develop a system that requires minimal human input. Eventually the government hopes that "the envisioned super system [will] be able to generate a level of supreme situational awareness and snap intuitive capabilities that could surpass the very best wartime commanders." In other words, this system will think and operate on its own.

 

 

One step closer to Skynet! Where's Sarah Conner when you need her?......

I think she's on TV, or her chronicles are.
