As robots grow more mobile, agile, and intelligent, they will emerge as powerful warriors, assisting or even replacing human soldiers on the battlefield. AI software will find commercial applications, such as extracting meaningful insights from hundreds of terabytes of data, automating business services, and substituting traditional "people-centric" professions like customer service and teaching.
Yet, robots and automation also pose significant risks. Millions of workers displaced by machines could severely impact society, triggering economic and social instability. Automated network systems may become prime targets for attacks by rival forces. The use of robots and automation in conflicts could raise profound ethical and cultural challenges.
