I was saddened, but not enormously surprised, to read that Russian drones used to kill Ukrainian citizens are powered by inexpensive computer gaming chips from Nvidia. The same embedded A.I. capability that makes for a good computer game also makes it possible for a drone to autonomously recognize and target gas stations, where it can kill actual humans — which is what a Russian drone just did.
Anyone who has read Enders Game will feel a tinge of deja vu. I’ll bet Orson Scott Card didn’t know he was writing a documentary.
