This book describes the technologies that enable real-world robots
and drones to be effective killers, including an overview of how
artificial intelligence and nanotechnology relate to the topic. It
also examines social controversies swirling around the design and
use of killer robots, such as whether fully-autonomous, robotic
weapons should be banned. Although robots are a modern invention,
examples of robot precursors date back to ancient times. This book
identifies and examines the monsters, artificial beings, and
fictional machines that are precursors of real 21st century killer
robots and drones. Examples of precursors include the golem,
Frankenstein's monster, and the ethical robots of Isaac Asimov.
