Image
  Artificial Intelligence (AI) has emerged as a transformative force in global security, reshaping traditional paradigms of warfare, surveillance, and military decision-making. With major powers investing heavily in AI-driven military applications, the role of AI in national security strategies has become a critical area of study. This paper explores AI’s impact on geopolitical strategy and national security by analyzing five key dimensions: AI in cyber warfare, AI-driven threat perception, military decision-making, autonomous weapons, and AI-powered surveillance. AI and Cyber Warfare: The Next Frontier in International Conflicts Cyber warfare has evolved into a critical domain of international conflicts, with AI playing a pivotal role in both offensive and defensive cyber operations. AI-powered cyber tools enhance state and non-state actors' ability to conduct sophisticated cyberattacks, automate hacking techniques, and predict vulnerabilities in adversarial systems.

AI-Driven Warfare: The Future of Conflict in the Digital Age

Image
  Introduction The evolution of warfare has always mirrored technological progress, from gunpowder to nuclear weapons. Today, artificial intelligence (AI) is poised to redefine military strategy, ethics, and global security. AI-driven warfare—the integration of machine learning, autonomous systems, and data analytics into combat—promises unprecedented efficiency but also raises profound ethical and strategic dilemmas. This article explores the technologies, applications, implications, and global discourse shaping this new era of conflict. Key Technologies in AI-Driven Warfare Autonomous Weapons Systems (AWS) Lethal Autonomous Weapons Systems (LAWS) , or "killer robots," can identify and engage targets without human intervention. Examples include AI-guided drones and unmanned ground vehicles. Swarm Technology : Coordinated groups of drones, as seen in DARPA’s OFFensive Swarm-Enabled Tactics (OFFSET) program, capable...

The Evolution of Technology (2015–2025) and Its Impact on Global Diplomacy and International Relations Over the past decade (2015–2025), technology has evolved at an unprecedented pace, transforming not only economies and societies but also the very fabric of global diplomacy and international relations (IR). From artificial intelligence and cybersecurity to digital diplomacy and information warfare, the tools, platforms, and infrastructures underpinning the international system have been fundamentally reshaped. States, international organizations, and non-state actors have all had to adapt to this rapid technological transformation, which has created both opportunities and new security dilemmas. 1. The Digitalization of Diplomacy (E-Diplomacy) One of the most visible transformations has been the digitalization of diplomacy . The rise of social media platforms like Twitter, Facebook, and more recently TikTok, reshaped how leaders, diplomats, and institutions communica...
