    Monday, October 16, 2023
    8:30 AM – 9:30 AM PST
    Location: Room: 7A
    Drones and robots are making giant leaps forward with the help of artificial intelligence, making them more autonomous and smarter. They have enormous potential to transform officer and community safety—provided the appropriate human controls are in place. Join Axon Founder and CEO Rick Smith and Chula Vista, California, Police Chief Roxana Kennedy, a drone as a first responder pioneer, for a discussion on the future of drones and robots in public safety, including current and future applications, ethical implications, and the legal and regulatory challenges that must be considered.
