What would you say if the soldier was a robot, with "AI" making its own decisions on who to kill, and when, and for what?
That "far off future" is no longer a philosophical question, it is here, now ... or at least within five years.
So I think you better rethink your idea of valor and patriotism....because the AI robot doesn't care, and it can probably kill a hundred of our BEST and BRAVEST soliders in a few seconds, without breaking a sweat.
Your "soldier" was always always more of an ideal than a reality -- because every human is different, and not an ideal, But, in any case, your "soldier" is going to be completely obsolete come tomorrow. Denying reality doesn't change that reality.
I'm interested in your thoughtful reply/rebuttal of my concern.
