Pentagon Intends To Build Skynet

The geniuses running the US military intend to build the equivalent of Skynet in the near future:

Due to technological revolutions outside its control, the Department of Defense (DoD) anticipates the dawn of a bold new era of automated war within just 15 years. By then, they believe, wars could be fought entirely using intelligent robotic systems armed with advanced weapons.

Haven't they ever watched The Terminator movies? Apparently they have, and they must like what they see.

Nearly every mention of AI in the news and movies and by intelligent people like Stephen Hawking includes a prediction that as soon as robots become self aware they will kill us. Shouldn't we be following our instincts on this one?
