New generation of drones set to revolutionize warfare
Over the years, we have all seen the sci fi movies such as Terminator, Robo Cop, I Robot, Eagle Eye and many others where robots that were programmed using artificial intelligence begin thinking for their selves and act independently of human direction. We thought that time would be further in the future but that's all bull shit now because that time is here.
"One of the biggest revolutions over the past 15 years of war has been the rise of drones -- remotely piloted vehicles that do everything from conduct air strikes to dismantle roadside bombs. Now a new generation of drones is coming. Only this time they are autonomous -- able to operate on their own without humans controlling them from somewhere with a joy stick. Some autonomous machines are run by artificial intelligence which allows them to learn, getting better each time. It's early in the revolution but the potential exists for all missions considered too dangerous or complex for humans to be turned over to autonomous machines that can make decisions faster and go in harm's way without any fear. Think of it as the coming swarm, and if that sounds like the title of a sci-fi mini-series, well, as we first reported earlier this year, it's already a military reality. We saw it with our own eyes and captured it on camera."
