Hollywood actress Jodie Foster said she would be “much more comfortable having robots” own a gun than an emotional human doing so.

“I mean, I’d be much more comfortable having robots have them, but we are designed to have emotions that overflow and that are not guided by our heads,” the Hannibal star said in a recent interview with Indie Wire.

“To have sentient beings that are completely and entirely guided by their emotions have the power to administer life or death using one kilowatt of energy in a nanosecond is just unfathomable with me,” Foster added.

Hmm... she'd be cheering Skynet in those Terminator movies.
A people hater.

Amazing how these Hollywood idiots think.

Who programs the robots? Actors should be first on the kill list

I only wanted women to be able to marry men. Guess neither of us gets our wish, Jodie-Jode.

I’m a Transformers fan who has written novel length fan fics and I would just like to say that she thinks a unliving robot can own something is cute.

As we say in the South: we’ll bless her heart!

I’m not concerned with Jodie Foster’s comfort.

Why would a robot need a gun?

Well, she probably prefers robotic penises to real ones, or robotic female parts.

Well, a robot is the closest thing to resemble a liberal.

Robots don’t use their heads to think. Neither do liberals. All brainless.

I might need to apologize to robots.

What a total moron. She apparently doesn’t realize that robots are controlled by humans. Most actors are far from the sharpest knives in the drawer

” one kilowatt of energy “

KW is power, not energy.

Is there nothing that wealthy entertainers don’t know? And they’re so generous about sharing their wisdom.

And yet, I have heard that allowing drones or robots make the decision to kill without human agency is considered by the international community to be a WAR CRIME.

At least that is what I have heard.

Is THAT what she is advocating?
