The Dangers of DeepSeek and Chinese Drones: Army Captain Florent Groberg (Ret.)

“They picked me up, and I’m hopping on one leg. And I saw Commander Griffin, Major Gray, Major Kennedy, and then USAID [officer] at the time, Ragaei Abdelfattah, were all killed by the same bomber that didn’t kill me,” said Florent Groberg.Groberg is a retired U.S. Army Captain who fought in Afghanistan and was severely injured attempting to thwart a suicide bomber. For his actions, he received the Medal of Honor, America’s highest award for military valor.“Everything that we have in this nation is because of men and women who put their lives on the line and didn’t come home. And their families—they have to live with the consequences of that,” he said.I spoke with Captain Groberg on a wide range of topics, from DeepSeek AI and swarming drones to the war in Ukraine and the threat from China’s communist regime.“When I first heard about DeepSeek and its battle with Open AI ... I saw it as an opportunity for the Chinese government to have free access to all of our data as they see fit,” said Groberg. “The Chinese have been developing the majority of the world’s small drones. I believe that the majority of the Russian [drones] come from China. ... I know that Ukrainians are also using their own specific drones, and they’re creating as much chaos on the other side. So, it really has changed the landscape of warfare.”Views expressed in this video are those of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.
