MENACING, KILLER-TYPE ROBOTS IN ACTION - Daily Spigot 10/13/18
<center><strong>&#127749; What Other Possible Use Do They Have? &#127749;</strong></center>

<center><h5><sub>Boston Dynamics, who makes scary robots, has a brand [new video](https://www.axios.com/boston-dynamics-robot-construction-404fda63-017b-4efb-90b6-38425c8b2051.html) showing
One that looks menacing, running around; where the hell are these idiots going?
We can’t conceive these folks are ‘good’, when they make such a grotesque machine.
We think it requires psychopathic intent, and an outlook on life that’s obscene.
They should be intensively screened, for signs that these jerks have some plan,
For taking over the world, so to speak, as these robots are meant to kill man.
</sub></h5></center>

<center><h5><sub>In-N-Out won’t open [stores](https://www.foxnews.com/food-drink/in-n-out-not-expanding-past-texas-ceo-says) in the East, and will stop at the Lone Star state.
If you live east of Texas you’re SOL, no matter if you think they are great.
If you want to eat their burgers and fries, along with a cold tasty shake,
You’ll have to travel to Texas at least, or eat a great hamburger *YOU* make.
</sub></h5></center>

<center><h5><sub>[Vice](https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/pa9w8m/a-star-is-born-is-bad-review) doesn’t like *A Star Is Born*, for flaws it describes having found,
Like the story line being typical fare, while creativeness doesn’t seem to abound.
They do like Gaga’s singing a lot, and the fact she wrote most of the songs.
So it seems those who respect her talent, will make up the most happiest throngs. 
</sub></h5></center>

<center><h5><sub>Princess Charlotte, made her appearance, at Princess Eugenie’s  wedding.
She stole the spotlight again so it seems, as up chapel stairs she was treading.
The wind caught her off-balance a bit, but she quickly recovered unfazed.
There’s several [pictures of Charlotte](https://www.popsugar.com/celebrity/George-Charlotte-Eugenie-Wedding-Pictures-45322678) to view; her cuteness has us all amazed.

<center><h5><sub>Scientists have found we’ve [25 years](https://www.pri.org/stories/2018-09-13/scientists-say-25-years-left-fight-climate-change) left, ‘til we’re done for, headlines blare.
We wondered if the article mentioned, that CO2 can be sucked from the air.
Or that Magnesite now is swiftly produced, drawing CO2 from air surrounding.
So we read it and found that it didn’t, which says a lot about views they’re expounding.
</sub></h5></center>
<center><strong>The Cost Is Low To Remove Excess Co2 – ***Why Aren’t They?***</strong></center>
<center><h5><sub>The more that we read about carbon dioxide, and how it’s a threat all around,
We still have to wonder what’s going on, when a solution to remove it’s been found.
94 dollars per metric ton is the [cost to extract it](https://boingboing.net/2018/06/08/its-becoming-much-cheaper-to.html) from the air.
Yet all anyone continues to do, is to argue about how it got there.
</sub></h5></center>
<center><h5><sub>Scientists now can produce a [mineral,](https://interestingengineering.com/scientists-produce-mineral-in-lab-that-can-remove-co2-from-the-atmosphere) that could end the global warming.
In nature it takes hundreds of thousands of years, for the mineral, Magnesite’s forming.
The scientists’ method takes 72 hours, for Magnesite to be produced.
So, will they do this or like Co2 extraction, see to it that they’re never used?
</sub></h5></center>
<center><h5><i><sub>The news, the news, there's so much in the news
The daily fabrications are so grand.
You likely won't be seeing much differing of views
Because they're all in lock step, understand?
</sub></i></h5></center>

Thanks!  I have sent up to the better part of an hour some days, finding the pics that I use for the lead story/poem.  I would rather the robot in today's pic would have been all black, like Boston Dynamics robots are, but the menacing look is definitely there.  It's nice when readers notice things they like.  Thanks again!

Don't tell me you work there! &#128565;

I just think that companies (especially ones that Google once owned &#128169;) making mechanisms which present such danger to people should be closely monitored, and that the company should reveal just what purpose these things are designed for beside hunting down and killing humans, seeing how they can run faster than cheetas.

Just an editorial opinion, however.  I'd like to hear yours! &#128064; Haha!

Lol, I wish.

I just love what they're doing so much. I understand your point and your concerns about AI in general. Everyone understands what really AI is should be concerned lol including myself, despite my love for the AI. 

I just don't think what Boston Dynamic doing is wrong. My overall understanding of this whole Boston Dynamic is that they try to convert the philosophy of natural motions and/or behaviors into a mechanic body. And as of why would they do that, there's a ton of reasons or events that humans would use them selectively based on the situations.

And, of course, they could be a killing machine. Which I believe no one could stop institutions or even individuals from developing AI/machines. For example, now you can 3D print guns, how cool and how dangerous is that? 

But then again, I get your point on the monitoring part, and I agree with you. There should be regulations and transparency. I even appreciate transparency more than any political and law manipulations.

I'm not sure what are your views on AI in general, but believe me, my friend, AI is just another technology like cars, tv, radio, or even a knife. Yes! The knife was once an advanced technology! It was used for gathering and hunting, but later we, humans, converted it into a killing machine. As this may sound off topic, I really find it a lot deeper than the kind of technology. It is not wrong to point out at something doesn't seem right but, at the same time I personally feel like we're always going in the wrong the direction, and in order to fix an issue, we really need to get to the roots. Why in the first place do we need a killing machine? Because we are filthy, bloody, disgusting creatures? I don't know, that's just how I view the world :D
