Wow, so sophisticated that it can tell the difference between people and trees?!  I don't take a lot of comfort in that.

For a computer, that's actually a significant ability.

Humans take their image recognition ability for granted most of the time, but machines tend to have a much harder time of it.


Oh for sure, the tech's an impressive development, but it's still a far cry from anything I'd trust to kill on my behalf. When it can tell a drunk kid who got lost coming home from the bar apart from an armed soldier, then I'll feel better.

At the very least, you can't use it in an area with any civilian population.
