This video
shows a robot fighting in the Vietnam war. There are
no sound during parts of the video because I wanted
to show the viewers what the robot is thinking while
fighting enemy forces. The flashing text and freeze
frames are the internal thoughts of the robot and not
instruction text for the viewers. These internal
thoughts describe the details of how the robot
produce intelligence.
My robot
doesn't use: planning programs/heuristic searches (used by MIT and Stanford
University), Bayesian's probability theories for decision making, Bayesian's
equation for induction and deduction, semantic networks for natural language
understanding, predicate calculus, common sense systems, first-order logic,
rule-based systems, genetic programming, or MACHINE LEARNING.
There are
many things going on in the robot's mind while fighting a war. There are
various military rules the robot soldier has to follow. In addition, the
robot is doing multiple tasks simultaneously. He is plotting routes,
shooting enemies, following orders from a commander, analyzing the
situation, making decisions, managing his weapons, planning future actions,
generating common sense knowledge, and predicting what the enemy forces are
thinking.
When
fighting a war, it is very important to come up with good strategies. In
the Vietnam war, using the flanking maneuver was very popular, where forces
are broken up into waves. The counter to the flanking method is the pincher
method, which is to surround each wave and ambush them. The robot needs to
know this and use personal judgement to counter enemy forces.
The robot
works with other soldiers in a team. He follows orders from a commander.
At the same time, the robot can also use his own judgement and take action.
For example, in one scene, the robot saw that his teammates where firing at
enemies in the north side. He knows that there are only 2 ways into the
fort (north and east). He decides to fight enemy forces in the east side
because enemies can infiltrate the fort through the east.
Sometimes
the robot has to make decisions really quickly. If there are a few enemies
identified, the robot can easily devise a strategy to take them out
quickly. However, if there are lots of enemies identified, the robot has to
think quickly and act quickly. In some cases, certain actions might be
chaotic. Mistakes might happen, like accidentally shooting an ally soldier.
Different
robots have different jobs and follows different rules. These military
robots work in a hierarchical system, whereby orders are given in a
hierarchical manner. Foot soldiers follow orders from their commander,
commanders follow orders from military officials, military officials follow
orders from the White house. Every robot working for the military knows
exactly what they can and can't do. They know who to listen to, what rules
to follow, what their job is, what their powers are, and so forth. In
addition, each robot can change their job description, a foot soldier might
be promoted to commander or a commander might be promoted to a high military
official. They uses military rules to synchronize their teamwork.
Military
officials devise plans to attack enemy forces. They send robot foot
soldiers, robot commanders, robot combat pilots, robot helicopter pilot,
robot tank, robot intelligence officers, and so forth, into the
battlefield. These military officials station units in various areas to
push enemy forces back. Each individual unit has to work together to share
resources, communicate with each other, and take out enemies. Basically,
anything that human soldiers can do, this technology can also do. It can
replace every soldier working for the United States of America. In fact,
this technology can replace every human occupation. That's the whole point
of my invention: "human" artificial intelligence.
The
question to ask is: are these robots loyal to the United States (or
whichever country that built them)? Will these robot's follow all laws of
the US? This includes the US constitution and military laws. Although
these robots were trained as soldiers, they must follow every law in the
US. This includes: don't hurt anyone, don't rob a bank, don't vandalize
property, don't shoplift, don't run a red light, etc. When this robot is in
battle, he can't target civilians, like women or children. He has to follow
all military rules and target only enemy soldiers. The viewers can go to my
website or read my patents to get the answer to this question. I go into
deep discussions about this topic.
Why is
this video so important??? Because if a robot soldier is built in the
future, this is how it thinks. These are the thoughts of the robot while
fighting a war. By the way, it is 10 times harder to build a robot janitor
than to build a robot soldier (believe it or not).
