from The Epoch Times<\/a>:<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n WASHINGTON\u2014Robotic killing machines prowl the land, the skies, and the seas. They are fully automated, seeking out and engaging with adversarial robots across every domain of war. Their human handlers are relegated to the rearguard, overseeing the action at a distance while conflicts are fought and won by machines.<\/p>\n TRUTH LIVES on at\u00a0https:\/\/sgtreport.tv\/<\/a><\/p>\n Far from science fiction, this is the vision of Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Gen. Mark Milley.<\/p>\n The United States, according to Milley, is in the throes of one of the myriad revolutions in military affairs that have spanned history.<\/p>\n Such revolutions have spanned from the invention of the stirrup to the adoption of the firearm to the deployment of mechanized maneuver warfare and, now, to the mass fielding of robotics and artificial intelligence (AI).<\/p>\n It is a shift in the character of war, Milley believes, greater than any to have come before.<\/p>\n \u201cToday we are in \u2026 probably the biggest change in military history,\u201d Milley\u00a0said<\/a>\u00a0during a March 31 discussion with Defense One.<\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019re at a pivotal moment in history from a military standpoint. We\u2019re at what amounts to a fundamental change in the very character of war.\u201d<\/p>\n
