| Transcribed by ESA, translated by — My name is Brian Anderson, and I produced a film called Drone | |
| On. | |
| Basis of the film was to figure out what the hell a drone is, and what it isn't, what it can do, what it can't do. | |
| 0.99% of drone activity is the weaponized sh** that you see going on throughout the Middle East and the Horn of Africa. | |
| The rest of it is civilian use. | |
| Non-lethal. | |
| My name is Jesse. | |
| I'm with DJI Innovations. | |
| I'm the lead technician for the company. | |
| This right here is an introductory type model, good for a beginner. | |
| It's called the Phantom. | |
| If a robot could take out the trash, that gives me five more minutes to spend with my kid at night. | |
| That would be a good thing. | |
| Of course, we're not looking for the good in robot technology. | |
| We're looking for a way to do harm with it. | |
| If you look at the trajectory of warfare throughout history, you know, when people put down the sword for a gun, folks said, you know, well, there's no honor in that. | |
| You know, there's no honor in killing someone from a distance. | |
| You know, my personal belief, there really is no honor in killing at all times. | |
| But, you know, remote warfare is just the most recent incarnation of that, like, distance phenomenon in warfare. | |
| We do not have any types of contract with the military or any type of things like that so far. | |
| I believe in defending your country, but, I mean, when it comes to unmanned airplanes striking against targets that we can't really see from hundreds of miles away, There's gotta be some questions asked about that. | |
| But in terms of them being used, you know, here in the States, I think for surveillance, absolutely. | |
| You know, recently, Christopher Dorner, the fugitive cop in Los Angeles, there was a rumor that started that a drone was going after him to search for him. | |
| Didn't turn out to be true, but a lot of folks said, you know, Why wasn't it used to find a guy, you know? | |
| I have a neighbor who is a senior police officer with APD and he asked me about it and I showed it to him. | |
| I flew it for him. | |
| He was very impressed. | |
| He wants me to set up an interview with my boss and so forth to possibly see about getting a contract with the city. | |
| I think it's something that shouldn't not be done, but I also think that foreign drone strikes are probably a little off base, too. | |
| It's like any technology, as it democratizes, you're going to have to confront these problems, or these concerns and these issues, you know, privacy. | |
| You know, a small personal drone that you can buy off the shelf for $300? | |
| That's just a tool. | |
| And there's been issues, too, with people thinking that you could spy with these. | |
| It's bright colored, has flashing lights, and it's loud. | |
| Well, not really loud, but you can hear it. | |
| I can hear it about 30 feet up, so I don't think that'd make a very good spy tool. |
