Department of War CTO(@DoWCTO):"It's a sort of dystopian, ‘Brave New World’ view of the world, where machines that are using 1s and 0s are going to have no bias and are going to decide the perfectly rational and best thing for everyone on Earth. It's a strange philosophical concept, and I don't think it's a place any normal person wants to live in. But that is the animation of a lot of these companies. They've now distanced themselves from it, but the detritus of that philosophy still lives inside these companies in my view." - Under Secretary Emil Michael (@USWREMichael)
