You can already watch hundreds, if not thousands of hours of Russians and Ukrainians being mercilessly hunted by drones with grenades. What difference does it make if it has a human pilot or not? The world has always been ugly and brutal if you were actually paying attention.
- MattRix 3y agoThere’s a really obvious difference of scale, where you could kill millions without needing millions yourself. The implications when it comes to terrorism are scary. In that sense it’s similar to the threat of nuclear weapons, but the technology will be more accessible and more precise, able to target people based on things like race. You can also destroy all the people in an area without harming the resources/environment/structures, etc.
