Oakland police pursuing development of armed “killer robots” to enforce the law

October 24, 2022 -

You read that right: elected folks – and possibly even some unelected folks – up in northern California want cops to be furnished with non-human killing machines at some point in the future. (Related: Big Tech wants to eliminate all human harvesters and replace them with crop-picking robots.)

It is actually the Oakland Police Department itself pushing for the robots, which its citizen oversight body is not necessarily comfortable supporting. For the time being, shotgun-armed ...
