Robot helicopter teaches itself how to fly.

Oh shit. We are so screwed now.

From Yahoo! News:

A new artificial intelligence system allows a robotic helicopter to teach itself how to fly and even do challenging stunts, just by watching other helicopters perform the same maneuvers.

[...] The artificial-intelligence helicopter, an off-the-shelf model other than its new brains, can do traveling flips, rolls, loops, stall-turns with pirouettes and more. It can even do the "tic toc," in which the helicopter, while pointed straight up, hovers with a side-to-side motion as if it were the pendulum of an upside down clock.

Yeah, good idea, let's give a hunk of flying metal some brains and a hatred of mankind. (The latter being inherent in all metal things.)
