I can only foresee good things to come out of this.

There isn't really any "teaching" going on; all they have done is programmed robots with the ability to identify initial parameters - that not being detected is a "good thing", and how not to be detected - and have then left the robot to carry out its commands. When a robot spontaneously starts giving itself commands that it was never programmed to even have, that's when Judgment Day is one step closer. Or at least one step closer to a Geth uprising. :P

This is pretty cool.

Unless they have a giant "OFF" button, then the robots don't stand a chance.

Now that is scary. Robots have been trianed to do something similar to this, but it was always in certain paramerters. Never have they been taught to adapt to their environment to aviod dection. For instance, the marker. Before, we would have had to tell the robot "Use the marker as a deceptive device" Now, it knows to do it on it's own.

This. I don't think it is even humanly possible to make a computer that can learn, at least not in the way that computers are designed now.

The Geth aren't dangerous. The heretics have had an error in their programming that makes them think that the Reapers will bring a higher existence. The true Geth are those that live peacefully among everyone else, and attempt to understand the universe as we do. Hell, if it wasn't for the Geth's naturally benevolent nature Commander Shepard would have never saved the world a 2nd time.

Did anyone read the caption to the picture?

The black robot intentionally knocked down the red marker to deceive the red robot into thinking it was hiding down the left corridor. Instead, the black robot is hiding inside the box in the centre pathway.

Not the red marker!

the mere idea of the heretics and the error that happened proves that AIs are dangerous. Also, you can't be sure if its going to happen again. AIs are hackable too, which is also not a good thing. Did you see what those heavy mechs can do :o

Or at least one step closer to mankind becoming God, for at that point we would have created sentience. And our robot servants would see us as God, and serve us with utter devotion.
