Today I want to talk about drones. Some of us own them. They are fun to fly. They can give a drone owner a whole new perspective on life. Drones make television news more effective. The list of the positive things drones can do could go on for pages.
The
Ukraine war has shown that drones can also be devastating weapons. Major
Russian ships have been sunk or badly damaged with hundreds of Russian
sailors killed or wounded. Tanks and other military vehicles have been
destroyed in massive numbers by drones. Many soldiers have died because of
drone strikes. Likewise, sadly, many civilians have died due to drone strikes.
Drones are showing themselves to be very dangerous and effective weapons. They
are generally cost-effective and cheap to manufacture.
Long before the Ukraine war started in February 2022, a visionary film
company came out with a movie in 2019 titled "Angel Has Fallen." Here
is a link to the film:
https://www.imdb.com/title/
Please have a look at the link. Please find the film and have a look at
it over the weekend. It is most thought-provoking. In the film, a small group
of elite former special operations soldiers hired by some unknown person
or organization decides to affect a regime change in the US. While the
president of the United States (Played by Morgan Freeman) is on a rural lake on
a fishing trip, a swarm of small drones is launched in the direction of the
president's fishing boat. Despite all the Secret Service protection and
advanced scouting work, the President of the US barely avoids death as a
swarm of drones attacks him. A very brave and skilled Secret Service agent
played by Gerard Butler pushes the president deep underwater and saves his life
barely.
Drone technology and deadliness have improved in the 4 years since this movie
came out. The moral of this story is that no one in the world is safe from
a small and determined group who understands drone technology and is determined
to use it. Drone technology will always stay "one step ahead" of the
best defensive measures. Artificial Intelligence will only make it worse.
Please reflect on this!
