Sergei Viktorovich Skripal (Russian: Серге́й Ви́кторович Скрипаль, born 23 June 1951) is a former Russian army officer who was poisoned in 2018 in the United Kingdom.

Skripal changed his allegiance and agreed to spy on Russia for the United Kingdom in the 1990s. He was discovered, prosecuted, and imprisoned, but left Russia in 2010 after a long period of imprisonment as part of a spy swap [OZ: with Anna Chapman & Co].

In early March 2018 Skripal and his daughter Yulia, who was visiting from Moscow, were poisoned in an attempted murder using a nerve agent, leaving them critically ill [...] A police officer, who was the first to attend, has been left in a serious condition in Salisbury District Hospital.
[...]
At the time of the prisoner swap, Vladimir Putin, the then and current President of Russia, said in a televised interview: "Traitors will kick the bucket. Trust me. These people betrayed their friends, their brothers in arms. Whatever they got in exchange for it, those 30 pieces of silver they were given, they will choke on them."[15]
[...]
Skripal's [...] son died on a visit to St Petersburg in 2017

Google is partnering with the United States Department of Defense [...] to identify objects in drone footage. [...] The project is called "Project Maven," also known as the "Algorithmic Warfare Cross-Functional Team (AWCFT)." The project started in April of last year with a mission to “accelerate DoD’s integration of big data and machine learning.”

A DoD press release on Project Maven says the project aims to help deal with the "millions of hours of video" the military collects. [...] initial focus was to detect "38 classes of objects that represent the kinds of things the department needs to detect, especially in the fight against the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria." Gizmodo claims it now provides the military with "the ability to track individuals as they come and go from different locations."
