   You guys wondered how AI could destroy the world? It could do this, but better and intentional.

      not AI, but idiots who use it for dangerous things.

         Well that was intentional. All the integrations with the US military didn't happen by accident.

         Edit: There's no way you're going to get these AI systems and not have them integrated with the military. It's a consequence of releasing this stuff on the world.

            As if every other powerful nation isn't doing the same?

               Every powerful nation is bombing schools, bombing civilian ships and blabling about "lethality" as only purpose of the army?

                  What is the purpose of an army?

                     Depends on who you ask, but typically either defense of the homeland or projecting hard power
