I didn’t realize the police were using “killer drones” (this is my doubting they are). Imo it’s not the police using them that’ll cause headlines first unfortunately.
What is the number of drone caused fatalities so far I’m the USA? I’m not thrilled to see which direction that goes in the coming decade.
San Francisco explicitly approved drones and robots armed with remote explosives less than two years ago, and last year Axon’s board of ethics resigned after TASER-armed drones were announced. These are emerging technologies, and larger departments are always licking their lips at the potential for new toys.
Probably close to zero? Only ever heard of drones starting fires and never heard of casualties from those.
Searching it up brings up nothing, just talks about US drone strikes in the middle east
