Who decides: Man or machine?
by possibly noteworthy at 9:44 am EST, Dec 1, 2007

An officer working on Future Combat Systems comes out against robotic soldiers:

Although we have made extraordinary advances in technology over the years, it is unlikely that any robotic or artificial intelligence could ever replicate the ability of a trained fighting man in combat.

This reminds me of those quotes about heavier-than-air flight and 640 KB of random access memory.

But can you imagine the outcry when a team of robotic police respond to a swatting prank?
