Pity they will be developed for warfare before they can be used in other areas. The rest of the report is interesting.

I love AI but this is just a little bit disconcerting. I agree that it will probably be used for ill first. Who controls a swarm by the way?

Interesting clip. *LOL* every time I glance at the word organism, I actually see orgasm.
*sigh*
I may need something to deaden my sex drive

Well,  researchers at the University of York have investigated large swarms of up to 10,000 miniature robots which can work together to form a single, artificial life form. The multi-robot approach to artificial intelligence is a relatively new
one, and has developed from studies of the swarm behavior of social insects
such as ants.
