What was said

"Imagine China, which is perfectly comfortable to surveil literally everything. And now you've got a swarm of bugs. You kill the first one, 9 more show up. And by the way, by killing it, it sends back a report that you killed it, which is a ding on your credit score."

China revealed a microdrone weighing less than 0.3 grams that imitates insect flight with wings beating 500 times per second. The device can carry miniature sensors for reconnaissance inside buildings and is almost invisible to the naked eye. Bilyeu warns this enables a level of surveillance totality that is excruciatingly terrifying, especially combined with AI navigation.
