Are The Killer Robots Inevitable?
What A DayArtificial Intelligence isn't just clogging up your Instagram feed with cartoon cat romance-revenge videos or helping your cousin pass AP European History class. Artificial Intelligence is on the battlefield. The Trump administration has been pushing to supercharge the U.S. military with A.I., and the military is leaning into the powerful new technology, from Venezuela to Iran. But not everyone is so gung-ho about it. So to learn more, we spoke with Mike Horowitz, who worked in the Pentagon on military A.I. systems under President Joe Biden and is a Professor at the University of Pennsylvania.
And in headlines, former Trump administration national security adviser John Bolton has reportedly agreed to plead guilty to one count of retaining classified information, President Donald Trump announces an effort to boost the struggling U.S. coal industry, and an exorcist is removed after linking UFOs to demons.
