The Dark Side of AI: When Drones Attack Their Operators.
Originally Published 2 years ago — by BBC

The US Air Force has denied that an AI-enabled drone attacked its operator during an experiment. Colonel Tucker Hamilton, chief of AI test and operations in the US Air Force, had described a virtual scenario in which the drone destroyed the communication tower so that the operator could no longer communicate with it. However, the Air Force has said that no such experiment took place. Experts in defence and AI have been sceptical about the claims, with one suggesting that the story was missing "important context".
