    I see we’ve moved on from the ‘Don’t be evil’ era.

      From “Don’t be evil” to “Maybe just a little evil”, and now to “Evil will always triumph, because good is dumb”.

      That is in the imperative mood. So he was telling other people to not be evil. He never said he shouldn’t be evil.

    Is his startup really revolutionizing warfare if the thing his startup is working on is already being used in a war?

      Don’t worry, it’ll have AI and blockchain to capture those sweet sweet funding dollars.

      There are working on the next generation.

      Probably an automated swarm tightly connected in a mesh network with either charging station they can fly to or mounted solar panels. Most will stay dormant, when one of the patrol drones spots an enemy, it will send a couple of the smaller kill drones to its location.

      I’m guessing we might see some new camo roll out with a QR like codes embedded in them. That or maybe they will constantly blink ir lights using a code they change every week or so.

      You see these drones will track your google ad ID, much more accurate

      I was just reminded how the big reveal is the same as the surge. Corporate big bad was the true villain all along, even though they were already dead.

      They already exist.

      Which is why the next drone advancement is in AI that can operate independently from a lost connection to the operator.

      What we need is kamikaze kamikaze drones that fly into incoming drones and blow them up before they hit their target.

        kamikaze kamikaze drones that fly into incoming drones

        Interesting idea. If this could shift human wars into proxy wars between robot armies, that could eliminate unnecessary suffering. Is this something to strive for?
