At least we know who the super creeps are now....In one of the sickest and twistedest (that's right... "twistedest". What're you lookin' at?) announcements I've read in, well, ever, programmers attending the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers symposium will attempt to program AI to destroy us all in a game of DEFCON.
"Part of the symposium is a sort of "Turing Test" challenge, in which contestants program an AI to play a videogame. The objective is to try to trick a panel of human judges into thinking the AI is a human player.WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE?! Like I don't have enough to worry about without people programming artificial intelligence to kill us all. You KNOW the robots are behind this.I... I'm done. When the robots come for you, don't be calling me complaining about the noise and death rays and junk. I won't answer. I mean it this time.
"This year's videogame is DEFCON, the brilliant nuclear war strategy game from indie developer Introversion.A group of talented programmers will pitch their DEFCON bot against enemy bots in a series of one-on-one thermonuclear chess games. The winner is the programmer whose bot successfully annihilates its opponents and racks up the highest death count. IEEE is offering a $500 prize to the deadliest DEFCON AI bot competition winner."
