    When I first saw this I was thinking in terminator terms and this is a long way from Skynet.

    However, there might not be a bigger issue in foreseeable future than terrorists armed with autonomous drones, depending on how the technology develops. The ability to plant a small drone that wakes up 24 hours later takes off and scans for a structure that looks like the Washington monument; or the White House or a key part of an electric grid. It doesn't have to have to be able to carry a big payload to generate a lot of destruction. Its a game changer
