China's 70% monopoly on the world's drones is being broken by a new American "flying brain" with 300 trillion operations per second of onboard AI. In this episode, Flyby Robotics founder Jason Lu reveals the incredible challenge of building a high-performance drone with zero Chinese parts, what a 30,000-drone swarm attack actually looks like, and why an open, accessible platform is the key to unleashing decentralized innovation across America.
