Company working on genetically engineered war dogs with first set coming in 2027

A tech company has raised $200 million to engineer dogs that are designed for war, and it’s drawn a fair bit of backlash online. According to a report from Wired, the idea was formed by Colossal Biosciences’ Ben Lamm and Anduril’s Palmer Luckey, suggesting that the genetically engineered dogs could serve the U.S. military, law enforcement, and other emergency responders. On October 22, a company for that idea - Warhound - finally came to the forefront, raising $200 million, putting a valuation on it of just over $1.2 billion.
