Dr. Greg Zacharias, former Chief Scientist of the United States Air Force (2015-18), explores next steps in autonomous systems (AS) development, fielding, and training. Rapid advances in AS development and artificial intelligence (AI) research will change how we think about machines, whether they are individual vehicle platforms or networked enterprises.

The Great American 2020 Election Steal by Paula Beverage About the Book The Great American 2020 Election Steal Vol. 1 is a tongue-in-cheek explanation of the insanity of people who want to be the boss or our leaders, along with the absurdity of MSM, Silicon Valley, and Hollywood. It’s an outsider’s perspective about the 2020 election steal from President Trump and the American people who voted legally for him. These thieves are so brash; we pay for what “they” do to us. The falsehood(s) and hypocrisy with how “they” prostitute themselves in public and want respect “they” have not earned. It would be humorous if it wasn’t so true. It’s a high-stakes game of life with its double standards and double jeopardy between the haves and the have-nots. George Carlin: It’s a big club and we ain’t in it... About the Author Paula Beverage has a GED, a job, and a black belt in hard-knock lessons and is an independent, self-made realist. She has spent her life being a mother and caregiver for disabled persons within her family and extended family, giving her the up-close and personal experience with alphabet agents and agencies as well as crooked courts, administrators, regulators, and “officials.”
