Well, I'm arguing that it's not a detente, it's a deterrence.

That as deterrence can be understood as I want to hit you, which I don't, but I want to hit you so much, but that if I do that,

the penalty is greater than the value of me hitting you.

And that's how to transform.

Well, there are many advantages to moving to drones and automation.

One, they're much, much cheaper.

They're much, much cheaper.

And two, you can stockpile algorithms.

You can essentially learn and learn and learn.

And remember, you can also build training data that's synthetic, so you could be even better than the others.

The final question I've been asked by our military is, what's the role of a traditional land army?

And I wish I could say that all of these human behaviors can occur without humans being at risk.

I don't think so.

I think that the way robot war, essentially drone war will occur is there will be these destructive waves

but eventually humans are going to have to cross a line.

They're going to have to... After we've depleted them.

It's going to be a long time before humanoid robots, which is what we see in the movies all day, right?

It'll be a very long time before we see that.

What you're going to see is very, very fast mobility solutions, right?

Air-based solutions and also hypersonics, also things underwater.
