Autonomy and AI are making broad advances. Those cute, trade show robotic dogs are getting teeth and being trained to bite
K-9s have provided invaluable service over the years. They will continue to serve for a long time. But in the higher risk environments, robotic K-9s are rapidly approaching service.
Get ready for kinetic steel, thunder, and bark on four robotic legs.
These new military grade dogs will be very useful in urban and field settings while biological K-9s are reserved for less hostile situations.
The real K-9s will be around for years, it will be interesting, or scary, if the robo dogs can be networked and led by real K-9s.
