Significance Leading powers are expending enormous human and financial resources to leverage AI tools for military purposes, with uncertain effects. Academic and think-tank discussions about the use of AI in war are routinely overtaken by real-world combat in Ukraine and Gaza. Impacts Great power competition encourages AI risk-taking in an effort to seek military advantage.
