Future infantry might not need humans
By: Todd South   1 day ago


Leading thinkers in technology and warfare picture a transformed infantry in future battles where humans are distant,  if not entirely removed, from the fighting.

Lt. Gen. Sean B. MacFarland, the deputy commanding general of the Army’s Training and Doctrine Command, spoke at the third annual “Mad Scientist” conference, a partnership between Georgetown University and TRADOC.

MacFarland emphasized that U.S. adversaries such as Russia are using existing technologies in new applications, such as cyber attacks on Ukrainian infrastructure in conjunction with deploying troops, changing the battlefield tactics.
