If only a time traveling robot and his human companions were to pay a visit to decision makers at claude(aka cyberdyne? :) ).
What are they using it for though? Target selection for precise strikes? I'm guessing their argument will be less lives will be lost if claude assisted with making sure the attacks were surgically precise?
What they've always been used for:
> Cold War computers were primarily driven by military necessity, focusing on nuclear weapon simulation, ballistic missile trajectory calculation, and cryptography to support Mutually Assured Destruction (MAD). Key uses included modeling hydrogen bomb design using Monte Carlo methods (e.g., on MANIAC), air defense systems like the Navy’s NTDS, and early AI for strategic planning.
"Review our targeting algorithm and suggest improvements."
Or the mass surveillance bit, "Parse this dataset and come up with a list of people whose emotions are most rapidly shifting towards violence."
