European Cyber Agora Conference 2024

On 23 April 2024, the European Cyber Agora (ECA) Conference began in Brussels, Belgium. This conference is a multistakeholder initiative aimed at promoting the responsible development and use of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Nanna-Louise Linde, Microsoft’s Vice-President of European Government Affairs, opened the event by highlighting the significant role of global collaborative efforts and raising awareness of AI governance concerns in an increasingly digital security domain.

Revolutionising the Battlefield: How Unmanned Ground Vehicles are Replacing Humans in Armed Conflict

Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGVs) are becoming increasingly common in security and combat operations. The introduction of Ukraine’s Lyut tank is a clear example of how automation is revolutionising armed combat. UGVs are currently capable of operating in a semi-autonomous manner but not in the use of lethal force. This paper will analyse the ways in which fully autonomous UGVS are being developed and introduced on the battlefield as well as the role that they may play in the future of security operations. As artificial intelligence (AI) is becoming omnipresent, it is necessary to understand the debate surrounding these systems in armed conflict.

The Future of Defense : Artificial intelligence Supported Detection and Recognition of Targets

New technologies are transforming the security and defence sectors at a faster pace than ever before. Digital technologies, in particular, are affecting established balances of power within the global security landscape. Therefore, it is essential to ensure that Europe’s security and defence sectors remain at the cutting edge of technological development.

European Defence Agency is Ready to Pursue Artificial Intelligence in Defence

Consensus on the regulation of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in defence has hardly been achieved throughout the European Union (EU). Indeed, many EU states are strictly opposed to AI in defence, whereas others have mildly advocated for and promoted research and development (R&D) in AI (Stauffer, 2020). The European Defence Agency (EDA) held a workshop on ‘Defence Applications of Artificial Intelligence’ in the last week of June 2021 (European Defence Agency, 2021), during which experts from all member states (MS) came to discuss R&D of AI in defence. Indeed, this is a prominent topic this year, as R&D of AI is considered the future. Many third countries such as China and the US have already dedicated significant time and resources into R&D of autonomous weapons and are even said to produce this technology (Chan, 2019).

Artificial Intelligence and Legal Policy Framework in the Western Countries

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is growing progressively thanks to the evolution of technology. In the military sector, AI has potential applications in every task in which human cognition is needed. As the European Parliament states, “it should only be used as a last resort and be deemed lawful only if subject to human control”. From a legal perspective, the following step is the regulation of a legal framework for AI based on standardisation, governance arrangements, and legislation. However, regulation must be made carefully, as time and calibration are the main factors for a successful change when proceeding with regulations.
