    A. Was that real?

    B. If so the most frightening thing was the applause.

    If this real, it’s honetly the scariest thing I have seen in a long time. Not to be a conspiracy theorist but this is some AI revenge movie type shit.

    There are video's out there that expand on this and show the affects it would have on our life.

    I saw this the day it was posted (about a month ago) and know that with the ever increasing DNA databases, AI crawlers on FB, Insta, etc., we will be recognized instantly about any where we go in about 5 years (if it takes that long).

    Wanna expand on that a bit? Go watch Tom Hanks' "The Circle", mix a drink, get creative, and the prepare yourself to freak the fuck out.

    Is it real you ask?

    If it’s not, it sure as hell can be. The technology is already here. I have an iPhone that wakes up and unlocks when it “sees” my face.

    Can drones fly them selves like that? You bet.

    Can drone shoot. Yup.

    Can we strap explosives drones. Si

    I was wondering what the purpose of the iPhone x facial recognition was. Now I know.

    Some of these were launched from 60-100 Kilometers away.

    Ghost Fleet is a great read if you want a glimpse into the next war.

    And probably assembled from off the shelf components. The Russians Pantsir system performed as specified, it appears. And their ECM.

    Syria is a practice ground for the Russians.

    The potential for China to pump these things out by the millions for cheap is a little alarming.

    I'm skeptical of the claim in the initial video that it can dodge a bullet. I'd have to see that to believe it.

    Facial recognition database would be flawed, just like the no fly list blacklisting eighty six year old grandmothers scary future if you ask me.

    The way I shoot, they'd be safe.

    They can't keep a cell phone from dropping a call or my DirecTV from going out. Ain't no way in hell they can make these work!

    They'd work even better if sprinkled with MSG.

    Thats pretty interesting. They were able to do damage with low tech mortar rounds, and there was only thirteen. Can you imagine what they could do i they were a little more sophisticated and there were a few hundred? I watched a documentary on the Iraqi forces fighting to retake Mosul. ISIS was targeting the Iraqi commander with cheap drones and hand grenades
