The Hidden Dangers of AI in Modern Warfare

The U.S. is reportedly deploying artificial intelligence to help fight its war with Iran, even as the Pentagon pushes for less human oversight over the use of this technology. Heidy Khlaaf is sounding the alarm about the safety and reliability of these tools, particularly in facilitating what is called a, quote, "kill chain." Dr. Khlaaf is the chief AI scientist at the AI Now Institute.
