Laser are more deadly,
It fires instant and kill you instant depending on the tech. The US is making it for the Air force for their jets, Navy for their ships and Marines for vehicles and ground troops. China and Russia are doing the same thing. DEW Weapons are the Future of combat.

Those are all for shooting down delicate machinery, I wonder how viable it would actually be to use a DEW against a human. The reason bullets work so well isn't because of the hole they make, it's because of the huge amounts of ballistic energy they disperse into the body. Even if you have a laser that can poke a hole through somebody that isn't going to have any stopping power, maybe if it hits an organ you'll die like an hour later but even hitting the brain wouldn't kill you immediately. Plus reflective armor would turn any kind of EM-based weapon right back onto it's user. I JUST DON'T BUY IT user

Energy weapons are for retards

Hand held energy weapons are impractical, you can't simply defy the laws of thermodynamics to solve the healing and power issues.

You're retarded. DEW weapons are only viable on large platforms due to the energy and heat requirements required to run them. DEW weapons are simply ineffective as small arms, and unless there is some major breakthrough in physics they always will be. Not to mention it's completely impractical to make DEWs for the average soldier. The plasma rifle you spent billions of dollars creating is no more effective against a human than a standard rifle. In fact, it is probably far less effective than a modern ballistic rifle.

Until there is a need for DEW small arms, small arms will continue to use standard ballistics.This is also the reason they use bullets in Halo, because until the Covenant it was just humans killing humans and you don't need anything more than a few bullets to kill a human.

Reading past the retarded journalism this is just laser AA

All of these articles talking about super sick energy weapons are actually talking about experimental AA platforms and shit. If any government was working on legitimate and more effective DEW small arms, do you really think some random fucking journalist would know about it? Absolutely not. The US military has been working on railgun tech for decades and it's only now just starting to be revealed to us as a workable platform.

The amount of energy you would need to melt someone alive with a laser rifle would make the rifle unusable by a soldier.

Keep regressing yourself with this thinking. Did you know in the pilgrims era believe electricity was considered fiction and witchcraft? WITCH BURN HER! Did you know in the 1800s people though automobiles was impossible and wouldnt replace horses? Or when they though airplanes was fiction.

This mindset is ridiculous
Reality is a concept based on the human understanding of the universe.
Science can make anything possible but we dont have the means to figure it out, so people like you just assume its fiction.
You know what else use to be fiction? Electricity.

hey your formatting is broken, you forgot the br tag

Having to manage energy weapons or railguns sound like a logistical nightmare. Even in the year 3000 that sounds like a pretty tough thing to do in a time of war, like maintaining and producing the advanced systems it uses.

They have the money and they're already building it.

You seem mentally ill. DEW small arms are a long ways off because they are extremely inefficient. Until new physics and miniaturization gets further with batteries, soldiers will not carry DEWs. You may see DEW platforms on tanks, ships, planes etc,... but only because those platforms could be capable of carrying the power supplies for the weapons. You seem to be making false dichotomies based on what people in the 1800s believed. It doesn't matter if they didn't think electricity was real back then. We aren't arguing if electricity is real. We are arguing the merits of DEWs as small arms, and there is no merit. It's simply impossible with modern tech to do anything but make prototypes AT BEST. Maybe one day it can happen, but it's a long way off at best.

The first gun was made in the 1300s. So we are still using chemical propellant in the far future, farther in the future than any game posted in this thread in fact. 700+ years. OP and most of the people in this thread are brainlet faggots that don't understand science/history. Or basic military for that matter. It's almost like Yea Forums bases everything they know off of video games...

Correct. There is nothing a fancy laser can do that a bullet can't do better and cheaper.

DEW Weapons have been around since the 80s you dumb shit GW Bush Presidency it a hold on it. It was only Trump who reactivated it.

They are for shooting down missiles and shit like drones, retard.
If you want to kill humans you are still better off using "chemical propellants" to stab them at range or take a bunch of it and drop it on their head.

DEWs have been experimental for decades, kid. They always trot them out as propaganda pieces, but the fact remains that they've never been anything more than prototypes and are attached to larger platforms designed for stopping missiles and crowd control. Again, why waste time and money creating a handheld DEW when some cheap 5.56 will kill just as quickly for almost no money. You are a child that does not understand anything about warfare.

No, they're scared of missiles which are far more efficient than a DEW system that can be rendered useless by the chaff that aircraft already carry.

My point is that it will most likely never replace conventional firearms or guns that use chemical propellant. The advanced weaponry talked about in this thread will most likely just fill niche roles.

And the spear has been in use for even longer. I'd argue that it was still relevant up until recently in the form of bayonets.

There have been no major changes to standard issue small arms in the last half century because small arms tech has already been perfected. Soldiers a century from now will still be using AR-15 and AK platform guns. Lasers and plasma guns will never make feasible small arms, the power required for them alone makes ballistic weapons superior. Not to mention cost.

Do people not realise the governments and corporations habe been using lasers longer before your deluded minds have seen it on television or books? It's just now they're being revealed for competitiveness. Same thing for gene therapy, and AI.

All of you need to u understand tech comes faster than what games and films let on.

Total Recall had us thinking we still be using phones in the future and then Cell phones came along.

Handheld energy based weapons are a long way off, chemical propellant is here to stay in terms of small arms

Are you trying to say bolters are inferior weapons, because they use chemical propellants? Pretty sure that's heresy...

Yeah we're making DEW for ships and ground installations because it takes a massive fuckton of energy to be useful. That shit isn't manportable, we aren't going to be fighting WW3 in 2025 with laser guns.

Chemical propellants will be have a better cost to size/affordability ratio for at least hundreds if not thousands of years.

Energy weapons require immensely better battery and capacitor tech than we have, let alone are able to make man portable.

trump is president right now..

Chemical proppelants are SUPERIOR, that's why they are the top tier for killing for more than 2 millenia. Lasers are fucking useless, plasma doesn't exist. It's not practical.

I think laser weapons look fucking stupid, especially because those dumbass movies often ''show'' the lasers. Just like sounds in space, fucking terrible. You're terrible user, go watch another star wars/trek and kys.

For GOOD space sounds play deadspace, or watch a space Odyssey.

Lazers would have no recoil though

but you won't get them.
a portable laser rifle is not only expensive but prone to default over time.
you can march through muddy weather with an AK-74 for months and clean it with your 5$ cleaning kit and still be operational.

imagine having to replace a laser crystal. you probably need a designated electrician/mechanic in your squad for maintenance

You think governments like china, us and Russian give a shit about war laws? Oh boy.....

>They are prohibited in warfare.
In war everything is allowed, regardless of any laws

as a cool physics uni teacher told 18 year old me 16 years ago: ''forget about lasers'', to melt a building with a laser you need a battery pack 100 times the size of that building. Lasers are useful for other things though.

unless they want to get grilled by lasers themselves they wont use them. the same with nukes

There wont be conventional war anyway. thank you nukes.

but yeah, blinding lasers are prohibited. So they are very unlikely to be used.

No. It was because in Halo the human race was in a civil war between the UNSC and the outer colonies until the Covenant came. The UNSC and Innies never needed anything more than ballistic weaponry because it's cheap, easy to maintain, and kills a man just as well as an advanced energy weapon. It wasn't until the Covenant came that ballistic weaponry stopped working, and that was only because of energy shielding. Without their shields, the Covenant die from a few rounds like everything else. Even then, once the war was over, the UNSC still uses standard ballistics because they were developed to competitive level throughout the war and are still cheaper/easier while being just as effective.

Gauss guns are functionally useless because they require batteries.
They're EVs of guns, pointless and stupid

real question, why hasn't AI completely replaced human pilots in fighter jets? if we can have self driving cars, we can have self flying jets. a computer controlled frame would have a massive maneuverability advantage over a human piloted frame given that it wouldn't be restricted by the biological component. i don't see why the navy/airforce hasn't done it. not to mention the reaction time on an ai system compared to pilots, and the system's ability to seamlessly interface with fleet or installation based radar..

Lasers are boring

user,
Joseph Staten literally stated that he wanted the COD Normies crowd when making the military using bullets in halo I. The future. He also admitted that Halo tech range is off. Mass Effect did it better to an extent (stupid notice)

blinding lasers, among other illegal weapons have not been used, and for good reason. If the enemy decides to use them as well you might be done real quick.

non newtonian fluids could do it.
They're experimenting with some gel armor IIRC

dude, if there was ever a war between someone and the US the battle lines would already be set so rigidly that any convention or rule would be thrown out the god damn window, just like what happened with ww2. when a nation's life is on the line it's not going to "play by the rules"

Because an AI does what it is programmed to do. If you program it to fly a specific mission, it will fly that mission and complete it or get shot down trying. It will not adapt to changing mission parameters or situations. An AI does not have intuition or a sense of morality like a human being does.

Yeah, but I'm not talking specifically about laser weapons, I'm talking general war laws. They have been broken before, and it certainly wouldn't be what limited a country if they thought something advantageous would be gained by breaking it.
It's almost like saying that serial killers can't exist because we have laws against murder

Yes but it doesn't matter if they can build it, what matters is if it's cost effective to do so. If it costs 1 billion per suit of advanced body armor, then nobody is going to adopt it since it's not worth the cost. It doesn't matter if the tech exists if it can't be used practically.

I'm not that interested in conventional warfare as I dont see it happening till there is a definite answer against nuclear rocketry, which will probably be never.

However I am interested in the US and china possibly genetically enhancing kids in some secret lab. I'm pretty much assuming both are, as both countries are highly immoral, and I wonder what the results would be.

What you are talking about isn't science fiction but high fantasy or "science fantasy". Science fiction is about taking a realistic technological concept or idea, and then expanding on how that concept/idea changes the universe/world.

It's called the Spartan II program and it's based.

To add an example,
What made the early 1900s special was that fact it brought a new age with automobiles, airplanes, semi-automatic and so forth.

I think this a new era,
And people are just happy it's happening while others are scared and some are just confused and refused but at the end of the day changes always happen no matter how much else don't want it.

look at china vs USA in north korea for a conventional war in the age of atomic weapons.

You can. Spaceship troopers in the book very decently matched against the bugs despite all their shit and shoulder mounted nuclear rockets. Nobody wants to try and take risks to make something that breaks the mold.

I meant overdesigned visually. Look up guns from killzone, halo, future warfare, crysis so on and so forth. They look boring and ridiculously stupid, on top of it most doesn't even have any kind of interesting gameplay gimmick to partially make up for it.

They’re impractical now, but who knows what we could do in the future. Having ammo be unlimited because the gun access resources from a pocket dimension or some shit. Be creative instead of “muh bullets”

No, the reason was that there was no reason to develop such platforms when a bullets can kill humans just as well and cost less money. Again, the only reason those weapons were developed was because Covenant shielding made regular bullets ineffective. And they STILL continue to use standard bullets because they advanced the platforms far enough during the war to put them on par. The railguns and shit they use in Halo are considered heavy weapons and not really carried by regular infantry squads, it takes a Spartan to use them as small arms.

You all do realises Halo was made in the early 2000s? Which is now considered a vintage era (with 2020). GW Bush Iraq war was happening and Halo somewhat took inspiration of that battlefield from it. They even had US Army personnel on the online game of Halo 3. Halo 4 tried to do it with Guass weapons but it looked shitty In my opinion.

Halo is technical a vintage game

Isn't Halo getting rebooted in the new one called infinite?

They're useful to detonate missiles prematurely, and that's about it.

What is real life to you?
People thought automobiles and airplanes were fiction and impossible as well as insane in the 1800s. Now look where we are now. Don't mash reality with your own mindset it's unhealthy.

What'll probably happen is that plasma or laser weapons are too large to be used as small arms at first.

That is called hard sci fi, and nobody expects hard sci fi from games, although there are some. Like Children of the Dead Earth for example, but they are so extremely niche that their presence doesn't make any dent in general picture. My point is all the high profile sci fi media, but especially games, try to push for realism while being nothing more than military wank and having realism of a fucking star wars.

>they are top tier for killing things because lasers haven’t be perfected.
When you can vaporize an army with a Star Trek phaser you can tell me how bullets are better.

FRIENDLY REMINDER
The AR from Halo is a DIRECT equivalent of a M240 machine gun: youtube.com/watch?v=Ll_d3Jwi7wQ
That means that not only are ODSTs canonically stronger than spartan 3's, it also means that spartan 2's are stronger than spartan 4's.

What do you expect when 99% of people who make videogames don't even know what a bolt is in a gun?

Depends on which corporation is finished.
Right now Amazon, Uber, Lyft and even Google is making breakthroughs also Tesla is almost done finished with theirs. It probably be for the wealthy first and eventually commercialised user.

Just be patient

You just need a bigger bullet.

I don't care about who's making it, I mean how practical would they be? They'd be an even bigger hazard than normal cars are and consume even more fuel.

the left will disavow it because the rich will be the only ones to afford super babies, which will lead to an even worse system of elites and prepetually poor. the right will disavow it because muh god's plan or some garbage

Spartan IIs are canonically stronger than 4's though. In the canon the 4's are absolute dogshit hopped up ODSTs. That's the whole fucking point. The 2's are better in every way than the 4's except for the one that matters" cost. It's cheaper to create 10k 4's than it is to make one 2. Despite how shit the 4's are they are still better than an ODST, they're just shit compared to the killing machines that 2's are.

The mac, gauss cannon, and a coil gun used as an anti-materiel rifle were made before contact with the covenant was made. The spartan laser was mounted on the sparrow hawk, which saw action early on in the war. The spartan laser itself was produced alongside a variant Mjolnir armor. It seems unlikely that the UNSC would brainstorm, develop, field test, and launch into full service an expensive and unique weapon in 6 years. The spartan laser was most likely being developed before the war. And project Gungnir was meant to provide supplementary material to the Spartan 2 program, which was made before the human-covenant war.
The Spartan Laser was used by ODST's, and railguns were even sold and used by civilian companies and forces who didn't have access to super soldiers. The reason these weapons aren't used by every solider is for the exact reason you stated. They cost to much to produce. And the weapons seen in the games were not designed during the war. The magnum has been in service for over one hundred fucking years.

Flying cars will never be practical.

Depends on how they legalised user. It probably be required to stay above ground area and. Also if they manage to do fuel wise with solar energy or electricity then it won't be less hazardous user (exploding). But that's just me.

NOBODY IS SAYING IT'S INSANE OR IMPOSSIBLE YOU FUCKING MONKEY, WE ARE SAYING THAT IT ISN'T PRACTICALLY FEASIBLE WITH OUR CURRENT UNDERSTANDING AND THAT IT WOULD TAKE NEW MATERIALS AND/OR NEW SCIENCE TO MAKE MAN PORTABLE DEWS WORK. FUCK.

And people thought airplanes and cars weren't practical and putting a ship shuttle on the moon was insane but believed what you want to believe.

No the point is that regular humans are better than spartan 3's and 4's if you are to believe that the ARs are consistent through all halos. Hell, since the AR in Reach is a smaller caliber than the rest that means Spartan 3's are FAR weaker than regular humans. The games are just not consistent with basic gun knowledge or "power levels"

>Sperging because he can't accept the truth that films are inconsistent as well as games and think everything is impossible because "Muh Knowledge" I read in a book by someone.

There are already small planes, gliders, etc. and they're not practical for short distances. You're actually fucking retarded if you think everybody's going to be flying drones to the convenience store anytime soon.

Thank you user, I just learned some more Halo lore that I was unaware of!

I never understood this gif. Is he crying or something?

>I was around when people though drones and self driving cars was considered fiction and more impossible back in the 90s
I was a child in the 90s and even still I was aware of drones and self driving cars as a near-future tech goal. All I had was the occasional free AOL disk and a nat-geo subscription to go off of so it sounds like you've always been slow and are now trying to use age and the resulting implication of experience as a substitute for a functioning brain.

Halo is a vintage military(notice I said military) sci-fi franchise user. It was made inthe 2000s of GW Iraq war and practically used the war as uts inspiration 9f combat and tech.

It's being rebooted for Fuck sake.

Some websites say it uses a different caliber. Even if it's the same the consistency is still shit.
We've had cars for 100 years, they're not going anywhere. You're stupid.

the average retard can barely handle driving in two dimensions and yet everybody thinks they'll have a flying goddamn car one day

Ok? That still doesn't justify them not having consistent "skill" levels of PCs.

Are you high? The Spartan's fire those weapons with almost zero recoil and perfect accuracy. Any recoil or inaccuracy in game is due to game mechanics and balance. In the lore every Spartan series is a ruthlessly efficient killing machine. Even the 3's, which were designed to be expendable, are fucking monsters. The 4's are only shit when taking into account their predecessors which were unmistakably superior individually, but cost far too much and took far too long to make.

You now realize these guns were designed in 1918 at the end of WW1.

Funny thing is now sci-fi is now becoming popular more than ever. Amazing how decade years changes someone outlook

>Being this retarded
You don't seem to be aware or understand how the Spartans operate in the lore. You seem to be under the impression that because a regular soldier can fire an assault rifle in Halo, they are on par with a Spartan. A Spartan can rip a man in half in the lore. You can't rip anything in half while playing the game though. Plenty of games have lore that translates poorly to the game space, so the game space is changed to accommodate better gameplay.

Shut the fuck up about lore you stupid faggot, I'm talkign about gameplay.

This user is correct. The real problem is that in order to make a man-portable weapon to do that, you would need a power source that just isn't feasible. Technology will need to advance much further before it becomes possible, and even then it needs to be cheaper to make and maintain to supplant regular ballistics.

How exactly is the camera supposed to stay clean anyway? Is it supposed to be self cleaning?

Which requires you to be able to supply the right energy consumption. Which means a, with what is feasible in a near-future timeframe, a big fuck off battery pack. Theres a reason that DEW development is limited to ground and ship based installations and a long range bomber.

chemically propelled kinetic energy weapons are the best energy weapons for small scale use.

Electrically propelled kinetic energy weapon once practical for larger installments will be good because you can accelerate them faster than chemical propellants.

Lasers might be good for point defense some day, but there is still a problem which is seen even looking back at ww2 where US anti air guns were capable of killing enemy pilots and disabling enemy planes but when the enemies were trying to crash into you this did not always even matter, as long as they were on course killing them wouldnt prevent them from crashing. This is why the US developed larger caliber 3 inch anti air guns designed to physically destroy things.

Do you not realise we're using nuclear energy, solar energy and so forth? Pls tell me your not just replying just to reply....

We're going to have gauss powered weapons like (Dead Space and Mass Effect) but DEW Weapons as well to stack up on it.

I thought this was a Dutch post for a second

Got a problem with Warhammer 40k?

A mirror a can be burned though, you just need a powerful laser.

you have to take practical considerations into account as well.

A gun battery using chemically propelled weapons can operate on its own. Something dependent on massive banks of capacitors is disabled as soon as any part of the ship or instillation takes damage.

>Something dependent on massive banks of capacitors is disabled as soon as any part of the ship or instillation takes damage.
AIs can probably manage the damage since we're approaching the age of AI assistance but we'll see in this upcoming decade.

We are centuries to early to have a sustainable energy source for laser/plasma bullshit in compact weaponry sizes.

I dont think anyone truly believes weaponry will stay the same, but no one can know for sure. Fiction is just taking a guess and running with, no need to sperg out.

Firearms are actually pretty efficient weapons, though. Nothing wrong with thinking they will be sticking around for a while. Especially in large scale applications like artillery.

Nigger, the only thing that will get better is the way the bullets are delivered.
i.e by a melanin seeking, autonomous drone.

This is true, but the future for small arms development is pretty much set in stone for the next few centuries. It's already perfected in its current form, and it'll stay that way until we eventually develop some kind of counterbalance. Something tells me that a set of lightweight, mass-producible armor that can negate most/all calibers of gunfire is pretty far off, though.

How do you suppose that nuclear energy is going to be distributed to troops? Have you done the math on this? You can't just violate conservation of energy, and even with a 100 W laser you'd need one hell of a cooling system to avoid the crystal from shattering into a million pieces.

I worked with developing an IR rangefinder laser for military applications. Looking at the power consumption and the cost of just basic parts like crystals make it a batshit insane plan to even consider laser weaponry for infantry. Just scratching one of the mirrors in the gun would make it virtually unusable on range, and you can't just rip it and exchange it on the go.

Autopilot won't fix the fact that gravity is a harsh mistress. I can see underground layers for 2D transportation. Flying cars will be either only for the very rich, or expensive to call for a ride, but most likely never for the population at large unless we all lose jobs to robots that will take care of us in the extropist future where you are snapshotting your mind into the virtual ether. Flying car is a too high collateral risk to be greenlit. Btw you already have flying cars and they are called helicopters.

Yeah but helicopters require special training to operate, and you can't exactly park one in your driveway.

We'll see,
There are multiple possibilities to commercialize it to civilians. I do agree with you that it'll go to the rich first.

>require special training to operate,
>additional training.
The price to pay for the ongoing tech. Our next generation kids will have a easier time with than us though.

And what about this will be different with flying cars? Two things will be certain no matter how far you progress with technology. You will need very high energy source to power it and if it falls down it has great potential to cause tremendous damage. That is ignoring the loudness factor. I can see flying ambulance or law enforcement unit if the tech becomes very reliable.

>if we discover something that seems to defy physics, we've been looking at physics in a bad perspective, or didn't observe the anomaly in enough detail
Or maybe we just confused and based our knowledge on another person research. Which is life, but every discovery leads us to more question like some twilight zone shit.

Laser weapons in military use are only good for taking down vehicles and aircraft
No point in creating laser guns for infantry if a bullet can do the job for much cheaper than making laser rifles for an entire platoon

Mass Effect guns (railguns) and DEW Weapons will be somewhat the future. I rather have bith honestly.

aye, science is basically trying to prove established things wrong constantly, to come up with new establishments, then try to prove that shit wrong too

Where are the mods...

>game set in the future
>still uses A.D

The railguns the DOD has (right now!) are recoilless.

Nobody would design a non-recoilless railgun on purpose.

As usual, the primary bottleneck isn't the physics, it's the energy generation/storage.

SEETHING

Lasers will never work on anything solid.

They're an ablative weapon that evaporates surfaces with intense heat or radiation.

The lasers you see in starwars at best could be magnetically confined plasma projectiles or something.

But guess what we actually use something very similar to this to fight tanks.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shaped_charge

But this isn't melting armor or heating the armor. It's like it's said a shaped charge it's literally a bullet on a bullet design that uses the first bullet to get to the target then when it reaches the target it fires the other bullet "the shaped molten copper charge" on the tank punching through it at 14km/s. It's pure kinetics.

So as long as you need to damage/deform materials Solid Objects flying at high velocities ALWAYS WINS.

>wavelenght is always on the visible spectrum

He is remembered today largely for his book De Magnete (1600), and is credited as one of the originators of the term "electricity". He is regarded by some as the father of electrical engineering or electricity and magnetism.[2]

A unit of magnetomotive force, also known as magnetic potential, was named the Gilbert in his honour.

no, but it kills either way, hence why planes have pilots despite being asleep half the time.

Yes. Hitler and Stalin and Mao were nowhere near as bad as Murrica. They only exterminated tens of millions. America dropped 2 atomic bombs that ended up taking less lives of the opposing nation than a full-blown invasion.

weapon guidance systems are far more important than the projectile you're shooting
what does it matter if it's a laser or a bullet? it kills people either way
being able to kill people from long ranges, around conrers, instantly without missing is the future of weapons

driverless cars are definitely going to happen and be mass adopted as superior drivers within the next 50 years. It’s just a matter of the AI getting good enough. That’s why amazon and uber and google are pushing so hard on developing the emergent technology and hoping the rest of the industry jumps on it.

hence why dogfights don't exist anymore.
They basically just shoot guided missiles at the horizon now.

It's crazy how all this tech is happening on nearly 2020, sorta of like 1920s industry boom.

Star Citizens does Laser bolts alot better than Star Wars. They shoot laser fast and displayed it.

To be totally fair the humanoid form is literally the #1 physical form a species would take if it wants to be top dog, and to be top dog it needs intelligence which a humanoid is best equipped to use in the best way possible
Think about it for a moment. Animals evolved for millions of years with their own bodies as a weapon to climb to the top of the food chain, some have claws and others tusks or razor sharp teeth or some other kind of bodily weapon. Humans evolved with opposable thumbs and an intellect capable of figuring out how to make and use tools, which you need opposable thumbs to use effectively in the first place
There's a natural predisposition for species with a humanoid form to be #1 in every sense of the meaning. It took humans maybe a couple hundred thousand years, but now we're advancing at an exponential rate and there's not a thing on our own planet that could beat a man with the tools brought into existence by his intellect

>yay great we get to live in 1984 soon.

Yes it was.

You probably thought the end of the world of 2012 was real back when people though it was real.

I dunno m8 the Unabomber was a 150 IQ nuclear physicist turned Luddite.
I believe him. Technology will enslave and kill us. It already started to. People have literally become more shallow and vain since social media erupted.

They’ll probably still have manual control. The real reason is that AI drivers will eventually be much better than the average driver, which when you think about it, isn’t too farfetched.

I'm more well educated on technology than you are I can assure you.
You're a brainless fucking loser who only deserves the inevitable enslavement.

>I'm moar smarter thanz yous!
This thinking....

I mean, threatening to incarcerate and/or kill anyone who doesn’t makes that pretty easy.

alright, just gotta remember not to stand still for 20 seconds

They probably upgraded by then over in that country.

Why are you here? You have to be baiting right? You honestly think there's not an active movement to take freedoms and compartmentalize the human condition?

given how much empty propaganda there is these days, i bet they spent just enough on R&D to make this video then went on to something else

Or show what they wanted to show to us and not the whole thing.

The US has literally had that technology for over 80 years, it's just a fucking laser pointer. How much of a nigger do you have to be to be surprised by a laser pointer.

>This trash ass thread has 427 post.

How much of chimpanzee do you have to be sperging out over tech. The 80s had cord phones, 90s had flip phones, 2000s had touch phones and so forth. Your an idiot if you think tech for DEW hasn't advanced in those eras.
