And supporters like Robert Finkelstein, president of Robotic Technology in Potomac, Md., are telling the Pentagon it could take until 2035 to develop a robot that looks, thinks and fights like a soldier.
Sure you didn’t miss a number there Robert? Like 3035? Somebody please tell me the Pentagon is not buying that pile of donkey crap.

Buying it to the tune of $127billion. Let’s hear it for defense contracts!
Now hold on, Ugarte. The DoD currently spends millions if not billions of dollars training human beings with complex, inquisitive, independent minds to think like a Commodore 64 running LOGO. It is probably easier—and cheaper—to make a robot think and look like a soldier than the current method of trying to turn human soldiers into robots.
Damn, now I feel insulted.
Imagine how I feel. Rick, you are banned for a month. Not that we’d notice…
Wow. You know it’s bad when Rick forgets that anyone other than Ugarte posts on this site.
