‘Children, AI computer programs, and nonhuman primates: all here embody ‘almost minds.’ Who or what has fully human status?… What is the end, or telos, of this discourse of approximation, reproduction, and communication, in which the boundaries among and within machines, animals, and humans are exceedingly permeable? Where will this evolutionary, developmental, and historical communicative commerce take us in the techno-bio-politics of difference?’
Haraway (1989) Primate Visions: 376

‘For defense-related unmanned systems, the series of regional conflicts in which the United States has been engaged since the end of the Cold War has served to introduce and expand the capabilities of unmanned systems technology to war fighters. This conflict-driven demand has ensured the technology’s evolution and continued funding, with each new conflict reinforcing the interest in such systems’ DoD 2007: 47.

“‘[the armed Packbot] will be able to fire over four dozen different kinds of shotgun ammunition, everything from large slugs that would kill an elephant, to buckshot that would cover a wide area,” says Joe Dyer, head of iRobot's military division’
