i was thinking.. if you wanted to teach a robot how to combat with humans, to teach them strategy, possible outcomes and scenarios.. whats the best way to acquire all of that data????
i dont think the engineers would know much about combat so they couldnt just hard program it in...
and even if a robot were to observe some kind of war simulation, it could only learn so much about how humans react in "certain situations".
there is a place where millions of different scenarios and millions of different strategies are implemented every day. this place is called the world of online first person shooter games.
if you could develop a system to tap into and observe every online game player's every move you could probably learn a lot about how humans react in many combat scenarios.
that plus some of the data collected by the military and you could make for one scary smart killing machine.

Given from the point of view of an engineer who spent 10 years active duty, although none of it was related to this kind of work - I have kept an interest in this stuff.
