Let's Fly High with UAVs
- The advancements in technology and artificial-intelligence have led to the incorporation of drones, or unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), in various sectors, such as war-and-conflicts, for surveillance and reconnaissance purposes, and politics, where they are used for civil unrest monitoring.
- As UAVs become more sophisticated, their applications extend beyond traditional military use and are now being explored in journalism, contributing to the dissemination of general-news and humanitarian missions.
- However, the increasing reliance on artificial-intelligence and UAVs in war-and-conflicts and other areas raises questions about their impact on international politics, the ethics of autonomous warfare, and the balance of power between nations.
