Subject
Innovation in artificial intelligence-enabled defence systems outside the United States.
Significance
Besides the United States, China and Russia seek a geostrategic advantage through artificial intelligence(AI)-enabled defence. European governments are also waking up to the potential of such systems, but their efforts are splintered.
Impacts
The feverish pace of development in China suggests its defence systems may be unreliable or unsafe initially.
Western researchers will be more bound by ethical barriers than their Russian and Chinese counterparts.
Private sector responses will balance commercial gain and reputational risk.
