The Future Interface of Neurotechnologies, Security and Drone Warfare
13 August 2025
Key points
- Driven by the integration of multiple fields and technologies, research in neuroscience and brain-machine interfaces is advancing at an accelerated pace.
- As our capacity to bidirectionally communicate with the brain increases, so do the associated security risks.
- In this context, the intersection of neurotechnologies and drone warfare is of particular interest.
- Various security risks linked to neurotechnologies and their intersection with drone warfare could potentially arise, but brain-machine interfaces will be essential in the development of land-based military drones.
