Pokémon Go Scans Trained the Navigation Tech for Military Drones

To those who were playing Pokemon Go ten years ago.

Thanks for playing. (You got played)

This is one of the most dystopian things I've heard in a long while.

I mean, we have a lot of weird shit going down right now... like AI being used to automate art BEFORE it's being used to automate dangerous and menial jobs, but knowing that people are being killed with help from data generated by millions of kids and young adults playing a fun, cute videogame is just so freaking dark and weird.

We are a very strange species and I don't have a great deal of hope for our future.

everything sucks :(

"If something is free, you are the product."

"Gotta... Kill em all?"

upon seeing the title i was only wondering - whose drones.

Hate to say I called this years ago....

It is a shameful use of tech.

Insane.

People literally traded military intelligence for Pokémon.

Funny how "conspiracy theorists" were once again right

Sentiment here is blowing this waaay out of proportion. It's not new technology, and its not particularly scary or dystopian.
