It also looks at new approaches based on AI that have been or are currently being developed. AI can lead to disruptive changes for military operations and warfare, but it can also lead to new arms control approaches that are more effective and reliable. The book provides a general introduction to the state of the art in AI and arms control and looks at examples from various fields of weapon technology. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hardback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 226 pages\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 09 October 2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Springer International Publishing AG\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLooking at a wide range of armament sectors, the book delves into the profound impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on the fields of armament and arms control. It explores how existing arms control measures will be affected by the advancements of AI and examines the development of new approaches based on AI. The significant surge in computing power, the increasing reliance on software, and the emergence of (narrow) AI and deep-learning algorithms have the potential to bring about disruptive changes in military operations and warfare, rendering many classical arms control instruments less effective or even obsolete. On the other hand, AI holds the promise of introducing entirely new arms control strategies, enhancing the effectiveness and reliability of new verification measures. To provide a comprehensive understanding, the book begins by offering a foundational introduction to the state-of-the-art in artificial intelligence and arms control, highlighting their interrelated nature. The second part of the book showcases examples from various fields of weapon technology, including weapons of mass destruction (WMD), conventional armament, and emerging technologies. The final section provides a cross-cutting perspective, drawing insights from the examples presented in the previous section. This volume is of interest to students and scholars of international relations, policy-makers, and practitioners seeking a deeper understanding of peace and security studies, with a particular focus on armament and arms control, in the context of AI.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 535g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 235 x 155 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783031110429\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1st ed. 2022\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44272384442618,"sku":"9783031110429","price":85.39,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/noImage_1_f093252c-37ed-46a6-a1c3-053430195937.jpg?v=1686253038","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/armament-arms-control-and-artificial-intelligence-the-janusfaced-nature-of-machine-learning-in-the-military-realm-9783031110429","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
