Today, Anduril is a little-known defense startup. Within five years, it will be as well-known as Lockheed Martin. The Pentagon recently selected Anduril to lead the Air Force’s flagship AI drone program. The goal is to build 1,000 unmanned aircraft and have them ready by 2030. This is the new Air Force. Human fighter pilots will barely exist in a few years. Check out Anduril’s winning design, Fury. It’s a fully autonomous drone that attacks in swarms traveling at 700 mph. |

...We hear a lot about AI destroying jobs. But consider this: the world's best drone pilot isn't some grizzled Air Force veteran. She’s a teenage girl from Thailand who developed her skills playing video games (seriously).
