For review:1.  Israel Alert for Iranian Weapon Transfers to Hezbollah.The IDF on Monday said it would ensure Iran does not smuggle weapons from Syria to Hezbollah in Lebanon as the Islamic Republic sends reinforcements to its ally Syrian President Bashar Assad to counter an ongoing rebel assault.2. NATO Sec General Talks Ukraine Negotiations.NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte: "The front is not moving eastwards. It is slowly moving westwards,” Rutte said. “So we have to make sure that Ukraine gets into a position of strength, and then it should be for the Ukrainian government to decide on the next steps, in terms of opening peace talks and how to conduct them.”3. French-German defense form KNDS to get new CEO.Formed in 2015, KNDS is a joint venture between France's Nexter and Germany's Krauss-Maffei Wegmann (KMV), two of Europe's largest land system manufacturers. The company makes the Leopard 2 main battle tank, Puma infantry fighting vehicle, and PzH 2000 self-propelled howitzer (155mm).4. US Army Autonomous Precision Strike Missile Variant. The US Army is developing a fifth Precision Strike Missile (variant), that it could potentially launch from an autonomous launcher to hit targets beyond 1,000 km.5. USMC 3d Marine Littoral Regiment (Hawaii) receives over an unspecified amount of Navy-Marine Expeditionary Ship Interdiction Systems (NMESIS).In 2021, the Marine Corps identified the procurement of 14 NMESIS batteries, composed of 18 launchers each. These unmanned launchers are equipped with two low-observable Naval Strike Missiles capable of reaching targets 185 kilometers away.6. GAO Reports Poor Condition of US Navy Amphibious Fleet.Half of the Navy ships the Marine Corps would use to make amphibious assaults are in “poor condition,” and some of the vessels have been unavailable for operational or training use for years at a time, according to a pointed new watchdog report.7. Indo-PACOM Combatant Commander (US Navy Admiral Samuel Paparo) concerned of strategic, long-range weapon transfers outside of US arsenal.“Inherently, it imposes costs on the readiness of America to respond in the Indo-Pacific region, which is the most stressing theater … because [China] is the most capable potential adversary in the world,” he stated. 

Nothing much is likely to happen in Congress during the lame duck session, but the new year could bring action on company drivers' per diem. Also, Associate Editor Tyson Fisher talks about this month's issue of Land Line Magazine, including what 2025 might be like for autonomous trucks.

Autonomous lethal weapons, often sensationalized as “killer robots,” are no longer confined to science fiction—they are a rapidly advancing reality in modern warfare. In this conversation, Georgetown Law Professor Mitt Regan, an expert on the laws of war and international law, delves into the profound ethical and legal implications of AI-enabled weapon systems for both current conflicts and the future of warfare. Central to the conversation are the legal frameworks governing AI-enabled weapons under international humanitarian law. Professor Regan examines principles such as distinction, proportionality, and precaution, showing how these are tested by systems that use AI to identify and engage targets. Significant gaps in legal frameworks persist, including the absence of a unified international agreement specifically addressing autonomous weaponry.Mitt Regan is a professor of law at Georgetown Law and an expert on both national security and international humanitarian law. (Credits: General 1hr | MCLE available to TalksOnLaw "Premium" or "Podcast" members.

Send us a textIn this episode we look at above all the call to mercy in healthcare.  With this base, we dive into the rights and responsibilities of the doctor (healthcare provider in general) and patient, and also the fundamental ways that the relationship between the two can be lived out:1. Contractual (not ideal)2. Paternalistic (not ideal)3. Autonomous (not ideal)4. Covenantal (this is what I'm talking about!)It should be noted that the right to healthcare is not absolute. We live in a world with limits: limits of time, limits of money, limits of supplies, limit on the years of our life.

Daniel Goff, Director of External Affairs, Kodiak joined Grayson Brulte on The Road to Autonomy podcast to discuss what the autonomous trucking industry needs from Washington, D.C. in order to scale commercial operations. Autonomous trucking regulations are often misunderstood. Contrary to popular belief, the legal and policy frameworks for deploying autonomous trucks on U.S. roadways are more advanced than many assume. The necessary regulatory elements are already in place, allowing for immediate deployment and scaling of autonomous trucks. While the necessary regulatory elements are already in place, what does the autonomous trucking industry need from Washington, D.C. to have regularity certainty? Tune in to find out.

In this engaging episode of The Real State, Alex Norman and Jamie Blonde dive into the fascinating intersection of location, culture, and driving behavior. How does traffic reflect a city's personality? Why does driving in Miami feel like a chaotic cultural blend, while Los Angeles drivers seem to embrace gridlock as a way of life? From New York's honking culture to the symphony of horns in India, the hosts explore how location shapes not only how we drive but also how we live. The conversation touches on technological advances like Waze, autonomous vehicles, and electric cars, and how these innovations are changing the way we navigate our cities—sometimes for better, sometimes for worse. They also debate the societal and personal impacts of congestion pricing and traffic technology, weaving in anecdotes about the chaos of Sao Paulo, the laid-back commutes of LA, and the competitive nature of navigating New York. Whether you're stuck in traffic or cruising freely, this episode will make you think differently about the roads we share and the cultures they reflect. Tune in for a mix of humor, insights, and thought-provoking discussion on the ever-evolving world of driving. Key Topics: How traffic culture varies globally and reflects societal norms The role of technology in shaping driving behavior Autonomous vehicles, urban planning, and the psychology of movement Personal stories from Miami, New York, Los Angeles, and beyond Stay safe on the road—and maybe don't honk too much in Miami!

In this episode of “The Business of Blueberries,” Kasey Cronquist, president of the U.S. Highbush Blueberry Council (USHBC) and the North American Blueberry Council (NABC), is joined by blueberry producer and innovative farmer Sam Gray, and Laina Gray, U.S. operations manager for FineField. Sam is the farm manager for his family's business, PineBloom Farms, in Albany, Georgia. He created a process for using FineField's Harvy 500 and the Burro automated cart to improve blueberry harvest efficiencies. Laina has firsthand experience with the Harvy 500, FineField's solar-powered robotic autonomous harvester. Together, they share insights on this collaboration and the benefits it offers blueberry producers when it comes to future automated processes. “So, I had no idea that we were going to use them both in tandem. It just seemed easier and maybe less wear and tear on everybody kind of involved in the operation. And then also the benefit … with the Harvy is as we're continually loading and unloading the fruit, it is probably not being in the heat off the bush for more than 10 to 15 minutes because it's going off the machine, it's getting palletized, and it's immediately being put in a refrigerated trailer. So, it just helps with getting that fruit to a temperature where if it does have bruising or if it does have defects, it will kind of slow the decay.” — Sam Gray Topics covered include: An introduction to Sam and Laina, and their work in the blueberry industry.The motivations and the process Sam used for incorporating automation into his operation. The benefits and challenges of using two unique automated technologies during harvest. Watch this video to see the automated machines working in tandem.

Welcome to another Weekly Update as we come into the end of November! Let's get straight into it! Rise of Robotheism - Is AI becoming a new religion? While I don't anticipate many people will sign up to worship at the altar of OpenAI, there's a growing trend in tech leaders and people looking for AI to save us. It gained enough popularity it even had a label. AI Physician Replacement - Elon Musk recently went on record saying it won't be long before AI replaces doctors and lawyers, and some recent findings out of John Hopkins would give some the impression he's right. However, I think a deeper analysis would argue, not quite. AI Work Transformation - A Microsoft software engineer recently shared how while AI is doing much of his coding, he still has plenty of work to do. It seems some of the concerns about AI replacing workers aren't holding water, and some research about organizational adoption will further mitigate the risks. Autonomous Military - The US military is confident their multi-billion dollar investment in AI will pay dividends, but what kind of metrics do you use to measure success? And, what ethical considerations are being taken? This is essential as we're already seeing fully autonomous weapons being field tested. AI Scammer Defense - The elderly are primary targets for international scammers and they ruin the lives of countless people daily. However, I love how one EU telecom company is fighting back with a cleverly named AI “dAIsy.” Show Notes: In this Weekly Update, Christopher explores the convergence of AI, technology, and the human experience. He discusses 'robo-theism' and the belief among certain tech leaders that AI could become a new deity. Christopher responds to Elon Musk's comments about the potential of AI to replace doctors and lawyers, also highlighting recent research from John Hopkins University. Additionally, he examines the slow adoption of AI by companies due to data and infrastructure challenges. He further digs into the rise of AI in the military, raising ethical concerns about autonomous weapons. Finally, on a lighter note, he shares how a UK telecom company is using an AI bot named DAISY to waste the time of phone scammers. 00:00 - Introduction and Welcome 01:30 - Exploring Robo-Theism and AI as a Deity 18:02 - The Future of AI in Medicine and Law 26:15 - AI in Software Development 37:36 - AI in the Military: Ethical and Philosophical Concerns 48:38 - AI vs. Scammers: A Clever Solution 51:16 - Conclusion and Final Thoughts #robotheism #healthcare #futureofwork #ai #military

And heads up if Starship 6 successfully launches to space from its Texas pad.you are looking for an inexpensive DIY way of running your home on solar!  Waymo is in the news with LA now being served by their autonomous robot taxis! Its nice to be driven about, but this week we also pay homage to those who enjoy the act of driving, which, surprisingly,  goes beyond our species; it turns out rodents enjoy driving as well! And then there is the turtle on a skateboard.. And who says our upcoming humanoid robots need exactly the same senses as us, especially when they can have Pano Radar, enabling them to see clearly through smoke, fire, and fog. If one day my robot needs to rescue me from a wildfire, I’d want hir to see clearly what she is doing!   The ethics of predictive policing are up again, this time in the context ofTurns out rodents like to drive! photo-Greg Panos analyzing data from thousands of police bodycams.  The data may help us predict who and where crime may occur, but at what cost to our privacy?  And do you have a fear of needles?   Or how about some AI headphones that can put you in a sound bubble, enhancing what you want to hear around you, excluding what you don’t?

AP correspondent Julie Walker reports on a U.S. unmanned helicopter startup seeking to eliminate risks for pilots in dangerous flights.

Last week we had an overview of weapons throughout history and how it's a constant game of balance and oneupmanship. Now we're looking at future weapons and Scifi stuff! There's a lot of potential and a lot of interesting ideas you can use in comics and stories. We talk about a few of these and some of our faves, as well as our own inventions. Future weapons can take all different forms, many kinds of directed energy weapons, energy propelled projectiles, satellite based weapons, drone and robot technology, autonomous weapons systems etc. Biological and chemical weapons are super scary but generally pretty useless in reality, even as terrorist weapons because they're so imprecise and uncontrollable and take a lot of work to set up and deploy. This means they will hit people who aren't your target and they also have an excellent chance of not even working at all despite all the preparation and cost, so we're not even bothering with these in the discussion. One future Scifi weapon concept that always comes up are “plasma” weapons. These are super undefined and no one really knows what they are because they can be so many things. When it comes to weapons what we mean by “plasma” is the very hot gas that has free ions so that it's electrically conductive like metal. We know dangerous plasma mostly from its use as a cutting torch in welding and also the gigantic planet sized solar flares that seem to erupt from the surface of the sun are plasma that's following the huge loop of a magnetic field projecting from the sun, because it can be controlled by magnetic fields. Given this it can be used in a few different ways as a weapon: you can use it like an explosive chemical propellant for firing bullets, you can use it as a sort of flame thrower (especially effective if you can direct it with a magnetic field), you can contain balls of plasma with magnetic fields and throw them like canon shells, or you can use the plasma as an electrically conductive medium to direct lightning bolts. Directed energy weapons are very traditionally SciFi but have only ever seen limited practical usage despite the old popularity of the “Death Ray” and lasers as weapons. They're attractive because the only limiting factor is your energy source, you don't need to carry ammunition so theoretically you can have unlimited shots, they travel at the speed of light so you can't miss, they're not affected by friction or gravity so there are no ballistics to work out either, there's also no loss in energy like there is with traditional guns where the propulsive explosion badly transfers energy to the projectile. The trouble is that they don't work very well as weapons because you need to put in a LOT of energy to do any damage over a distance because they don't work well in an atmosphere, you also have to hold it on a target for a long time. This category includes the aforementioned lasers, microwave weapons, electron beams, particle beams etc They have a lot more potential as space weapons where atmosphere isn't an issue and their lack of recoil is a huge advantage. Electrically accelerated projective weapons known as “mass drivers” are another category. They are capable to much higher speeds than traditional guns or missiles because they're not limited by the compression of gasses. In this group we have Gauss guns aka coil guns, rail guns and some other variations. They use magnetic or electrical fields to accelerate projectiles. The main advantage is speed, increased safety because they don't need dangerous propellant, and shots only limited by your electrical capacity. The disadvantages of these systems is that they're very complicated, they can't use explosive projectiles, and they have a high failure rate- Railguns are the most promising system but each time they fire they produce clouds of burning fire, which is caused by layers of metal being stripped from the rails inside them, which means they degrade very quickly and the rails have to be replaced constantly. We all know the potential of drones, but the use of autonomous self directed weapons where the drones can pick their own targets is where they become scary. Autonomous weapons are already a reality in large defence turrets on ships, around army bases, and important buildings (like the Whitehouse). They can be set to radar directed target acquisition, which they need for defence against fast moving missiles. Machine gun turrets on the defences along the DMZ between North and South Korea also work like this. Even cruise missiles are somewhat autonomous in that they can find their own way to their targets. What we're really worried about though are things like predator drones or tracked bomb disposal robots coming after us with weapons like mounted machine guns, both are possible and have been tested. Satellites have limited weapon capability, none have enough power onboard to carry useful energy weapons, while mass drivers and traditional projectile weapons introduce the problem of recoil which is extremely hard to cope with for a satellite in orbit. They can carry missiles like nuclear weapons be they're extremely vulnerable to attack for such an expensive weapon. successful experiments have been made using traditional guns against other satellites but they're very messy and dangerous to everything in orbit. A stupid idea that was proposed were the “rods of god”: giant tungsten poles which the satellite could drop as destructive gravity driven bombs, The trouble is that would be super expensive to get into space, the accuracy is extremely bad and the energy needed to aim them would be too costly. It would only be useful as a “sword of Damocles” if you had them always hanging over specific targets, but even then they'd be very easy to disable. We came up with our own future weapons. Mine was a marshmallow gun that would spray masses of harmless sugary marshmallow fluff all over your enemies, then use a microwave emitter to massively expand the marshmallow and heat it to debilitating levels. This would envelop people in masses of injurious, burning gooey muck, which would then harden on them and any surface it touched. It would also be terrible for the insides of electronics and machinery. I could talk about a LOT more but let's leave it for now. Listen to the cast! What are YOUR fave future weapons and how do they work?

Moving in a dense cloud, like a flock of birds in flight, 100 drones maneuver through the night sky in an open field just outside Hungary's capital. It's the result of more than a decade of research and experimentation that scientists believe could change the future of unmanned flight. The behavior of the swarm, made up of autonomous drones that make their own decisions without pre-programming or centralized control, is guided by research conducted by Hungarian scientists at Eötvös Loránd University (ELTE) in Budapest on the collective movements of creatures from the natural world. “We don't scale up our systems from designing one single drone and then having multiple ones,” says Gábor Vásárhelyi, a senior researcher at the university. “But we start this whole thing with the mindset of collective motion and collective behavior.” In recent years, drones have become a common sight in the sky: Companies like Amazon and FedEx have launched drone delivery services, hobbyists use them for aerial photography, and groups of more than 1,000 drones have been programmed to deliver large-scale light shows. But the scientists at ELTE's Department of Biological Physics have developed new models based on the behavior of animals to allow a large number of drones to travel autonomously and react in real-time to their environment and each other as they execute individual routes and tasks. “This is the level of what we call decentralization or decentralized systems. After the drones are told what to do, we can switch off the ground control station, we can burn it, or whatever, throw it away,” says Vásárhelyi. “The drones will be able to do what they have to do just by communicating to each other.” Using data the researchers gathered by monitoring the flight of pigeons, the movements of wild horses on the Great Hungarian Plain, and other animal behavior, they developed an algorithm that allows the drones to make onboard, autonomous decisions and safely mitigate conflicts to avoid collisions. Digital models in three dimensions have convinced the researchers that the algorithm can successfully support 5,000 drones flying together autonomously.

WWJ auto analyst John McElroy reports autonomous cars are getting to be much safer thanks to generative AI.

Midland Evangelical Free Church Sermon Audio Midland, MI

There have been a lot of bold claims about how generative AI and machine learning will transform the SOC. Ironically, the SOC was (arguably) invented only because security products failed to make good on bold claims. The cybersecurity market is full of products that exist only to solve the problems created by other security products (Security Analytics, SOC Automation, Risk-Based Vulnerability Management). Other products are natural evolutions and pick up where others leave off. In this interview, we'll explore what AI can and can't do, particularly when it comes to alert triage and other common SOC tasks. Segment Resources: From Forrester: Generative AI Will Not Fulfill Your Autonomous SOC Hopes (Or Even Your Demo Dreams) From Intezer: Mastering SOC Automation in 2024: Tips, Trends and Tools The Future of SOC Automation Platforms SentinelOne wants to make the autonomous SOC a reality Naturally, the next approach to try is a federated one. How do we break down cybersecurity into more bite-sized components? How do we alleviate all this CISO stress we've heard about, and make their job seem less impossible than it does today? This will be a more standards and GRC focused discussion, covering: the reasons why cross-walking doesn't work the reasons why traditional TPRM approaches (e.g. questionnaires) don't work opportunities for AI to help risk management or sales support? This week in the enterprise security news, Upwind Security gets a massive $100M Series B Trustwave and Cybereason merge NVIDIA wants to force SOC analyst millennials to socialize with AI agents Has the cybersecurity workforce peaked?
