From Noema:
Eric Schmidt is the former CEO of Google and the former chairman of the U.S. National Security Commission on Artificial Intelligence (NSCAI). He is now the CEO of Relativity Space, and has been heavily involved in developing AI-powered military drone technology for Ukraine through ventures such as White Stork and Swift Beat. He spoke recently with Noema Editor-in-Chief Nathan Gardels.
Nathan Gardels: The wars in Ukraine and with Iran can arguably be considered the first AI and robot wars in human history, involving drone warfare and AI-enabled precision targeting on a massive scale. Given what we’ve seen so far, how do you envision the battlespace of the future evolving?
Eric Schmidt: I’ve now made many trips to Ukraine over the last four years, and what I’ve seen there has changed my mind about almost everything I thought I knew about how wars are fought. This is the largest revolution in military affairs in history and most Western militaries have not yet absorbed what that means.
