    That reminds me of something that happened in Bagdad. Rebels started taking pot shots at garbos. That became a massive, massive problem. I think they ended up with troops having to do it. When you need a group of fully equiped troops to empty your bins, you have quite a few issues.

    Sort of, but I'm not sure this is true. It's not a real AI, it's not a true learning system. The reason why he's talking about "moving swiftly" is because altering an "AI" isn't quick or easy. The reason why this is important for this kinda thing can be summed up in one example, that's...

    There are already 'Thinkers' on the Right saying "A winning tactic is a winning tactic!" and "If you want to lose with class, you're still a loser." The thing is, the above, like all of this kind of thing, is admitance that there is a war, and not rivals, but enemies. Not one country, not any...
