Is the world headed toward an AI-fueled Cold War?

It is easy to confuse the current geopolitical situation with that of the 1980s. The United States and Russia each accuse the other of interfering in domestic affairs. Russia has annexed territory over U.S. objections, raising concerns about military conflict. As during the Cold War after World War II, nations are developing and building weapons based on advanced technology. AI can also be used to control non-nuclear weapons including unmanned vehicles like drones and cyberweapons, the expert says. Unmanned vehicles must be able to operate while their communications are impaired – which requires onboard AI control.
