I was like, "Hasn't anyone seen the god damn Terminator movies?!!!" Anyway, I agree that to the extent killer robots are used, they should be brainless and under the complete control of their human masters. The other consideration is the likelihood that robot armies would lead to more wars, as eliminating the human cost of war would make it easier for politicians to support. Scary stuff.
