Nauti's Take
This analysis makes one thing clear: AI militarization is no longer a future scenario — it's happening now. For security and policy professionals, this creates urgent new action areas and real career opportunities.
At the same time, the nuclear-age comparisons aren't alarmist: without international agreements and oversight mechanisms, the risks are severe. Those who want to shape this need to engage now.
