Documentary filmmaker Carl Colby and David Johnson of Act 4 Entertainment present this collaboration between the Center for the Study of the Drone at Bard College and Carnegie Council.
This panel will explore the rapid evolution of transformative military technologies that are now appearing on the world’s battlefields and are redefining warfighting strategies and tactics. The panelists will pay particular attention to the role of autonomous and semi-autonomous platforms—unmanned arial vehicles or drones, remotely piloted aircraft, robotics—in tomorrow’s conflicts.
How will these technologies change the “on-the-ground” experience for combatants? How will it change for decision-makers? And how can these emerging warfighting technologies be deployed to substantially reduce the loss of life, both of service members and civilians?
