Summary

The mysterious drones spotted flying over New Jersey and at least six other states have captured Americans' attention, creating worry and concern over their source for over a week now. Government agencies issued a joint statement on Monday saying there is no evidence that these drones are a threat to national security or public safety. So when will Americans have more answers on these peculiar sightings? Military affairs analyst Dr. Paul Schwennesen joins to explain the evolution of drone technology and what exactly drones of this size could be capable of. How will artificial intelligence shape our future? While AI holds the promise of significant benefits for humanity, there are also concerns about its potential misuse. A bipartisan House task force has just released a report with recommendations for smart regulation, aiming to position America as a leader in this emerging field. California Republican Congressman Jay Obernolte, co-chair of the task force, joins the Rundown to discuss how AI can revolutionize our lives for the better and why Congress must establish protections to prevent potential harm.
