In this episode of Entropy Rising, we explore how weapons evolve as technology and energy scale up, starting with systems already reshaping modern battlefields and extending into the kinds of weapons only advanced civilizations could realistically build. We begin with near-term developments like drone warfare, autonomous systems, and anti-drone countermeasures, looking at why these technologies are changing conflict faster than almost anything else in modern military history. From there, we e...
