Here’s Ben Affleck on CSPAN saying that we should grow the US military and spend more on AI, network IT, and space assets.

This one isn’t true at all.

That isn’t really Ben Affleck, it’s Kevin Baron the editor of Defense One, but he looks just like Affleck. Also, Baron prefaced his statement with “...then. there's an argement that...”, so I don’t know if this is Baron’s personal opinion or not (although his facial expressions and voice intonations seemed to indicate approval for the argument).

I have no idea how Affleck feels about defense spending or the application of these technologies.

@Pat sorry, but the resemblance isn’t that strong.
