Right now, militaries around the globe are investing heavily in the use of AI weapons and drones.  From Ukraine to Gaza, weapons systems with increasing levels of autonomy are being used to kill people and destroy infrastructure and the development of fully autonomous weapons shows little signs of slowing down. What does this mean for the future of warfare? What safeguards can we put up around these systems? And is this runaway trend toward autonomous warfare inevitable or will nations come together and choose a different path? In this episode, Tristan and Daniel sit down with Paul Scharre to try to answer some of these questions. Paul is a former Army Ranger, the author of two books on autonomous weapons and he helped the Department of Defense write a lot of its policy on the use of AI in weaponry. RECOMMENDED MEDIAFour Battlegrounds: Power in the Age of Artificial Intelligence: Paul's book on the future of AI in war, which came out in 2023.Army of None: Autonomous Weapons and the Future of War: Paul's 2018 book documenting and predicting the rise of autonomous and semi-autonomous weapons as part of modern warfare.The Perilous Coming Age of AI Warfare: How to Limit the Threat of Autonomous Warfare: Paul's article in Foreign Affairs based on his recent trip to the battlefield in Ukraine.The night the world almost almost ended: A BBC documentary about Stanislav Petrov's decision not to start nuclear war.AlphaDogfight Trials Final Event: The full simulated dogfight between an AI and human pilot.

Prepare to confront the unsettling truth as we unravel the complex tapestry of global power shifts ignited by the ascent of artificial intelligence, with Paul Scharre's "The Four Battlegrounds: Power in the Age of Artificial Intelligence" as our guide. This episode isn't just another tech talk; it's an urgent exploration of AI's profound influence on warfare, surveillance, and disinformation—forces that are reshaping our society as stealthily as they are swiftly. This is more than a podcast—it's a critical dialogue on the choices we face in harnessing AI's formidable force.Key Points from the Episode:From the chilling predictions of Putin and Xi Jinping to the stark reality that nearly half of U.S. economy tasks could be automated with current technology, we're standing at the brink of a new industrial revolution. Tread into this brave new world with me, David Kaiser, and our guide as we grasp the magnitude of change AI promises—and threatens.Venture beyond the surface into the everyday shifts that AI is bringing—your fast-food orders might never be the same again. But it's the darker side of AI, as illustrated in Scharre's book, that demands our focus: a weapon of repression, a tool for military power, a catalyst for a future that might not feature the robot uprising of science fiction, but poses immediate and insidious threats to global peace and security. Buckle up for a circuitous journey through the winding roads of AI's potential, where we weigh the balance between its capacity to revolutionize productivity and its power to dominate and dictate. Other resources: More goodnessGet your FREE Academy Review here!Get our top book recommendations listGet new podcast episodes dropped into your email box easilyWant to leave a review?

This week on the show, Fareed speaks with Shibley Telhami, Anwar Sadat professor for peace and development at the University of Maryland, about Netanyahu's plans for Rafah, and Chuck Schumer's calls for elections in Israel. Is the two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict a mirage? Then, the U.S. House of representatives passed a bill this week that could lead to a bank on TikTok. Fareed hosts a spirited debate with Kori Schake, director of foreign and defense policy studies at the American Enterprise Institute, and former general counsel at the National Security Agency Glenn Gerstell. They discuss the security risks that the Chinese-owned app poses for its 170 million American users, and whether the ban could have first amendment implications. Next, Paul Scharre of the Center for a New American Security provides a chilling update on the future of fully autonomous weapons. Will machines soon make decisions on the battlefield without humans?  Finally, Amy Wilentz, contributing editor at The Nation, joins the show to shed light on the chaos that is unfolding in Haiti, as gangs run rampant in the capital.    GUESTS: Shibley Telhami (@ShibleyTelhami), Kori Schake (@KoriSchake), Glenn Gerstell , Paul Scharre (@paul_scharre), Amy Wilentz (@amywilentz) Learn more about your ad choices.

Artificial Intelligence is changing warfare. Fully autonomous weapons that can make their own decisions about what to target or whom to kill are already in limited use today. But the pace of development of AI suggests that these so-called "Killer Robots" may become more and more common in future armed conflicts. Meanwhile, the speed at which new AI technology is coming online far exceeds the ability of the international community to come up with guardrails that might place controls on fully autonomous weapon systems. Guest Paul Scharre is the Executive Vice President and Director of Studies at the Center for a New American Security. He is the award-winning author of Four Battlegrounds: Power in the Age of Artificial Intelligence. We kick off by discussing what we mean by autonomous weapons before having a longer conversation about what the future holds for AI in warfare, nuclear security, and how to secure sensible regulations on autonomous weapons and military uses of AI.

An award-winning defense expert tells the story of today's great power rivalry―the struggle to control artificial intelligence. A new industrial revolution has begun. Like mechanization or electricity before it, artificial intelligence will touch every aspect of our lives―and cause profound disruptions in the balance of global power, especially among the AI superpowers: China, the United States, and Europe. Autonomous weapons expert Paul Scharre takes readers inside the fierce competition to develop and implement this game-changing technology and dominate the future. Four Battlegrounds: Power in the Age of Artificial Intelligence (Norton, 2023) argues that four key elements define this struggle: data, computing power, talent, and institutions. Data is a vital resource like coal or oil, but it must be collected and refined. Advanced computer chips are the essence of computing power―control over chip supply chains grants leverage over rivals. Talent is about people: which country attracts the best researchers and most advanced technology companies? The fourth “battlefield” is maybe the most critical: the ultimate global leader in AI will have institutions that effectively incorporate AI into their economy, society, and especially their military. Scharre's account surges with futuristic technology. He explores the ways AI systems are already discovering new strategies via millions of war-game simulations, developing combat tactics better than any human, tracking billions of people using biometrics, and subtly controlling information with secret algorithms. He visits China's “National Team” of leading AI companies to show the chilling synergy between China's government, private sector, and surveillance state. He interviews Pentagon leadership and tours U.S. Defense Department offices in Silicon Valley, revealing deep tensions between the military and tech giants who control data, chips, and talent. Yet he concludes that those tensions, inherent to our democratic system, create resilience and resistance to autocracy in the face of overwhelmingly powerful technology. Engaging and direct, Four Battlegrounds offers a vivid picture of how AI is transforming warfare, global security, and the future of human freedom―and what it will take for democracies to remain at the forefront of the world order.
