AI arms race: US and China weaponize drones, code and biotech for the next great war

AI investor Arnie Bellini predicted that future battles will be fought by robots, and that the U.S.'s cyber and AI capabilities might be able to prevent a war with China before it starts. From drone swarms to gene-edited soldiers, the United States and China are racing to integrate artificial intelligence into nearly every facet of their war machines -- and a potential conflict over Taiwan may be the world's first real test of who holds the technological edge. For millennia, victory in war was determined by manpower, firepower and the grit of battlefield commanders. However, in this ongoing technological revolution, algorithms and autonomy may matter more than conventional arms. "War will come down to who has the best AI," said Arnie Bellini, a tech entrepreneur and defense investor, in an interview with Fox News Digital.
