The manufacturing of robotic systems, patrol and attack drones has advanced greatly since the last decade. These robots and drones are also being used at business and military levels. These drones, which are smaller in size and less expensive to produce, have changed the equations of the conflict. However, the drones will play a very important role in future, considering their performance in the Russia-Ukraine conflict, Hicks said.
“The United States will not attack China immediately with the help of these swarm drones. However, China should feel such fear every day. With the power of these robots and drones of the United States, China will have to live in fear not only today but till 2049,’ Hicks said. For this, Secretary Hicks expressed the need for the United States to make maximum use of ‘Artificial Intelligence,’ i.e. ‘AI’.
