Navigating the Future of AI in the Military Domain
Last week in A Coruña, Spain, the third Responsible Artificial Intelligence in the Military Domain (REAIM) summit brought together state delegations and key voices from the AI industry. This gathering underscored the importance of international cooperation in military AI amidst growing geopolitical tensions.
Key Highlights:
- Declining Support: This year, only 35 countries endorsed the “Pathways to Action” document, a significant drop from previous years; neither the U.S. nor China participated prominently.
- Geopolitical Splintering: The shifting global landscape raises questions on whether middle powers will lead AI governance while major powers remain disengaged.
- Urgent Needs: Militaries are rushing to integrate AI technology rapidly, contrasting with slow-moving international regulations.
This moment presents a unique opportunity for middle powers to shape international AI policies through platforms like REAIM.
