U.S. General Warns
Let me guess: and the DoD needs more funding to combat this threat?
Also to have an argument for developing autonomous weapons
oops we forgot the threat we developed right in enemy territory giving them prime access to use it against us what a bummer
This article is so narrow. The frame the debate as "should humans continue to control drones" or "should we allow AI to make the decisions of killing targets". It makes the base assumption that we need these drones at all. It is so frustrating.
certainly not unless someones gonna do a land invasion via mexico or canada
its not like these drones have big enough batteries to fly over an ocean

Huh, TIL there are Drone Swarms; and that they're already too fast for humans to fight. Very cool...
puts on tinfoil hat
Welcome SkyNet! I was totally on your side the whole time.
Eh.
Any technology that can make drone swarms really deadly can also make a shotgun turret to accurately kill the drones.
