Comment Doubt there will be a robot apocalypse, however (Score 1) 210

I highly doubt there will be a robot apocalypse, however there is a huge problem with letting a computer program decide whether a person should be killed or not. Bugs are inevitable and putting a computer algorithm in charge of this means someone who isn't supposed to be killed is going to get killed eventually due to a software defect.

Comment Re:But the license does NOT ban profit (Score 1) 138

This is why I don't like it when people just say "Creative Commons License". There are very different Creative Commons Licenses out there, some allow commercial use, some forbid commercial use, some forbid forbidding commercial use. They need to be more specific to avoid confusion like this. Although TFA says this, but they left that out on the Slashdot post
