Due to some personal issues we weren’t able to record a new episode this week. This week’s episode is an unlocked bonus which originally appeared on our Patreon in February.

Francis speaks with military tech journalist and friend of the show Kelsey Atherton (@AthertonKD) about developments in the autonomous robot realm. What if the cops were a dog that took your temperature (this exists)? What if a Blackhawk was fully remote? What if we told a robot, 'No war crimes, please'? All this and more on this episode.
