>>guns are inanimate. they cannot be smart or dumb. that is for the operator.<<
Nowadays almost NOTHING is “inanimate.” They are putting AI into all sorts of things, from toys to lawnmowers and of course, cars.
Even without watching the video, I can envision in the near future guns that are “situation aware” starting with only working for the person whose fingerprints or other bio signature is imprinted into it. The next phase would be discerning whether the target is a person or not.
Maybe 20 years away but that is not all that long.
Sure hope the battery, electronics and sensors never fail. Most especially when really needed.
this will never sell.
smart guns make dumb decisions for all
This assumes that technology will just proceed along at the same pace no matter what happens - I’m not saying politicians and Mad Scientist guys like Fauxi will not try forcing it on us at some point, of course, but if their current “gun control” measures work we won’t have ANY type of firearm available, chipped or not. We’ll be hunting squirrels and pigeons with slingshots - for survival, not sport - if the globalists have their way.
The “great reset” will have one beneficial aspect: A lot of that over-computerized, microchipped “smart” crap will go away.

That should terrify anyone with a brain.
So we will have a smart gun that can recognize people.
Next will be a method of instructing the smart gun that yesterday’s bad guys are not protected and the gun will not fire when aimed at them......Do you see where this is going?
Conservatives bad.
Libs good.
A gun would be of zero help when dealing with a Jekyll and Hyde, and there are many of them.
I am waiting for “Smart Condoms”
