Will Artificial Intelligence Revolutionize the Art of War?


Despite the development of artificial intelligence (AI) only being in its early stages, it has already had an impact on armed forces.

The most pessimistic prognosticators envisage apocalyptic scenarios, but the worst is by no means inevitable.
