On April 9, Forward Defense Senior US Air Force Fellow Lt Col Christopher P. Mulder wrote a book review in DODReads on the novel Warbot 1.0: AI Goes to War. In his review, Lt Col Mulder concludes that the United States needs deep thinkers to prevent and prepare for the next unnecessary war.
Winston Churchill once suggested we could avoid future wars if certain ‘blunders’ can be avoided. That is my hope; however, I also know as Vince Lombardi said, ‘hope is not a strategy.’

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.
