On October 3, Forward Defense nonresident senior fellow Elliot Ackerman was featured in an episode of Open Debate entitled “Wartime Kill Switch: Human or AI?” in which he defended human control over lethal battlefield decisions.
Forward Defense leads the Atlantic Council’s US and global defense programming, developing actionable recommendations for the United States and its allies and partners to compete, innovate, and navigate the rapidly evolving character of warfare. Through its work on US defense policy and force design, the military applications of advanced technology, space security, strategic deterrence, and defense industrial revitalization, it informs the strategies, policies, and capabilities that the United States will need to deter, and, if necessary, prevail in major-power conflict.
