Quotes:
The reasons for this headlong rush include a misplaced faith in
“miracle weapons,” but above all else, this surge of support for
emerging military technologies is driven by the ultimate rationale of

-------
AI is coming, and its impact on our lives, whether in war or peace, is
likely to stagger the imagination. In that context, one thing is
clear: we can’t afford to let the people and companies that will
profit most from its unbridled application have the upper hand in
making the rules for how it should be used.
