AI and war, a profitable calculation example

The topic of artificial intelligence is now also driving the digital pig through the analog country in Austria.
Not only, but also in Austria, there are things that society is deprived of by withholding information. At the scene in Kronstorf, Upper Austria, the politically responsible can or want to approach the urgent questions of citizens only with soundproof headphones. Precisely because politics has long since made its decision in favor of such a data center.
“Wars are now won through technological superiority,” says Professor Patrik Glauner, who specializes in Artificial Intelligence at the Faculty of Applied Computer Science at Deggendorf Technical University. Strategy expert Kenneth Payne from King’s College London ran simulations of common AI-driven geopolitical crises. In 95 percent of cases, the AI escalated to the use of nuclear weapons. ‘The nuclear taboo seems not to be as strong for machines,’ Payne states in the ‘New Scientist’…. A new arms race is emerging, in which AI must be used to keep up with the enemy. Not even time to nod in agreement with the decision will be available. The price: complete loss of control to the machine.”
But what if these data centers and AI no longer want to do what they were ordered to do? If the battlefield of the opponent in the analysis is no longer the goal, but the commanding warlord? Is there no such thing? Really not? We will explore this question further.
