Disturbing results: Air war between robots and humans is simulated. Who won?

It doesn't work, every operation is useless to this”. This was the not least upset assessment of one of the U.S. military aviation pilots involved in a battle that was seeing him in total difficulty to the enemy.

It's not about an alien conqueror, like in the movie known as “Independent Day”, but the final of a special tour, funded by the Pentagon and organised by the project. DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency), which as a target has had a deeper assessment of the difference and priority of artificial intelligence to man.

And in fact, the winning pilot was exactly a robot, built specially by Heron Systems in Maryland.

The robot won practically 5 matches against the expert pilot, whose name does not become known, but is dubbed “Banger”. The robot took priority especially at the moment it intensified its aggression by conducting maneuvers that perhaps even a human being, which has a house to return, would never try.

They've long been talking about an advantage of these pilot robots, at least in air battles, and it's thought the study of DERPA could increase the way for a more massive use on the ground of artificial intelligence, starting with the Skyborg project, where drones are thought to fly along with aircraft piloted by people in even difficult missions.
