This article breaks down the numbers in the Pentagon proposed 2027 budget. Specifically, they are asking for over $53 billion for the Defense Autonomous Warfare Group (DAWG) to build up autonomous drone warfare. To put that in perspective, they only spent around $226 million on unmanned systems during the last cycle. Its an absolutely massive jump that shows a clear shift in military strategy towards robotic systems.
We are looking at a future where AI-driven combat systems and drone swarms will be the main focus rather than traditional troops.Experts are already raising concerns about how this could change global power dynamics and whether the tech is even reliable enough yet.
It looks like the push for uncrewed systems is becoming the new standard. It will be interesting to see if congress actually approves this huge request or if they try to scale it back a bit.
That means that the USA will end pushing artificial systematic poverty due to the lack of need of having a desperate population to recruit from?
