The Unmanned Systems and Artificial Intelligence Revolution
Page Publishing, May 31, 2024
This book completes my unmanned systems trilogy and provides an update on the capabilities and threat potential of unmanned systems since my previous two books, titled Unmanned Systems: Savior or Threat and The importance and Vulnerabilities of U.S. Critical Infrastructure to Unmanned Systems and Cyber.
The U.S. Congress and military services claim humans will control artificial intelligence (AI)-enhanced autonomous weapon systems, yet they are severely mistaken. The age of autonomous warfare has already arrived, and its incorporation of AI has begun. Our strategic competitors know that AI will digest volumes of information and make decisions far faster than human beings. They have already been unleashed without a human in the loop to authorize engagements against human beings. Our world is embroiled in a technological revolution with unmanned systems and the meteoric rise of more responsive and innovative AI algorithms.

U.S. Critical Infrastructure: Importance and Its Vulnerabilities to Cyber and Unmanned Systems
Page-Publishing, May 8, 2023
This book provides an update on the capabilities of Unmanned Systems since my previous book entitled, Unmanned Systems: Savior or Threat. Our world is embroiled in a technological revolution with unmanned systems and the meteoric rise of smarter and smarter Artificial Intelligence (AI). These two entities are not in their infancy, for they have emerged and grown immensely in capability, potential, and threat. There is a modern-day race between countries intent on conducting research and development to get improved unmanned systems and AI out to governments, companies, and to the general populace. By mating armed and autonomous unmanned systems with artificial intelligence, we are leap-frogging humanity toward “Skynet.”

Unmanned Systems: Savior or Threat
Page Publishing, October 29, 2021
The threat of an attack involving an unmanned system armed with a weapon of mass destruction is a present one. With two million drones projected to be flying U.S. skies in 2020, unmanned aircraft systems in the air domain pose a significant challenge to the nation's security.This publication is an examination of Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS), Unmanned Surface Systems (USS), and Unmanned Undersea Systems (UUS). This publication will focus on the emergency of new UAS capabilities and highlight the latest technologies, capabilities, and the significant national security threat implications that UAS, USS, and UUS platforms represent to U.S. critical infrastructure.
