Autonomy & Defense Policy in the 21st Century

The nature of warfare is constantly changing, but there’s no doubt that autonomous weapons systems are the future. In this session, Anduril CSO Chris Brose, Representative Mike Gallagher (R-WI 8th District), and author and moderator Jacob Helberg will discuss the evolution of the U.S. policy around the use of drones and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), what a 21st century military should (and must) look like, and what they consider to be the right balance of public and private investment, and ownership, in autonomous defense technologies.
