Hive minds: How 'swarm robots' are learning from insects
CNN
While Terminator 2's "judgement day" is not likely, their pack mentality is. Swarm robotics is when a team of robots work together towards a single goal, from mending a leak to clearing a mine. Scientists from Massachusetts institute of technology have unveiled the 'M-blocks', a group of blocks that stick together to form different shapes autonomously. Swarm robotics seems as though they will be used for military purposes, although they are not being developed for this purpose, it is bound to happen sooner or later.
I think that swarm robotics is an important part of evolution and that it will be a main-stream 'thing' in the future. I agree that swarm robotics should not be used for military purposes because it can also be very harmful if used for the wrong reasons. I think this article is very interesting although needs a different title because they only mention insects twice in the entire article.
