This is the latest heavyweight article in the 'heavyweight' international journal, Foreign Affairs. Like all articles on this topic, it's long on pious concerns and feeble technology extrapolation while offering little to nothing compelling in public policy.
So what's the answer? My first thought was that a prudent military might create a last ditch Fortress on the Moon, in case it all goes pear-shaped back on Earth.
But the out-of-our-control AI adversary would be smarter than that. We would be like Neanderthals holed up in some cave with axes and spears against a fully equipped 21st century military task force.
No: instead this. The military should have its own super-smart combat AI systems, massively funded and massively loyal. Then we'd have a chance. Our AIs would be better than their AIs plus those dangerous wild ones.
Forget regulation, it's for ineffectual wimps. Get that black budget request in now!
