(Reuters) – Taser manufacturer Axon Enterprise told Reuters that on Sunday, it had stopped work on a project to equip drones in stun guns with the aim of combating mass shootings. One member of its AI ethics panel said this was causing a massive exodus.
The resignations and Axon’s suspension of its plans have never been reported before.
