We should consider how we use drones more carefully

摘要

One of my favourite lines in the movie Jurassic Park is Jeff Goldblum's classic: "Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should." This line is just as applicable to the people who build infrastructure in the real world as it is to the fictional lab workers who created dinosaurs. We have access to so much new technology today, but we shouldn't be using it just because we can - we should be using it knowledgeably and safely, in situations where we know it can improve the way we do things.
