2. The Nuanced Role of AI
1Not a Panacea
AI is not a silver bullet, but it's also not a
Pandora's box of evil. It's a nuanced
technology with both benefits and risks.
2Balanced Approach
A balanced and responsible approach is
needed to harness the power of AI while
mitigating potential downsides.

3. Generative AI: Unlocking Strategic
Dominance
Massive Potential
Generative AI offers $7
trillion in annual value to
the global economy.
Strategic Advantage
Generative AI accelerates
information synthesis to
maintain strategic
advantage.
Ideal for Defence
Defence is a great candidate
for Generative AI due to high
data volumes and repetitive
documentation.

4. Generative AI Applications in
Defence
Knowledge Retrieval
Expedite access to data and synthesize
required knowledge.
Document Generation
Automate the creation of various
military documents.
Diverse Use Cases
Personal, Operational, Planning, Logistics, and Intelligence Applications.

5. The Power of AI for Defence
1 Enhanced Situational Awareness
AI-powered analysis of battlefield data can improve threat detection by up to
20%.
2 Logistics on Autopilot
AI can optimize military logistics by 10-20%, saving billions and freeing up
personnel.
3 Cybersecurity Guardian
AI can reduce cyberattack response times by 70%, bolstering military network
defences.

6. Generative AI in Intelligence
Satellite
Imagery
Analysis
Enhance analysis of
satellite imagery to
support intelligence
gathering.
Document
Summarization
Streamline the
process of
summarizing
intelligence reports.
Geospatial
Analysis
Enhance geospatial
analysis to support
strategic planning.
Data Synthesis
Facilitate the
synthesis of
disparate data
sources for
intelligence insights.

7. Ethical Considerations in Military AI
Accountability
Ensuring responsible use of AI-driven actions.
Legal Framework
Navigating the evolving landscape of international laws.
Ethical Principles
Upholding ethical considerations in military AI applications.

8. Potential Downsides of Military AI
1Autonomous Weapons
Concerns over lack of human control
in life-or-death decisions.
2Bias in the Battlefield
Racial bias in facial recognition
software used by some militaries.
3The Arms Race of the Machines
An AI arms race could exacerbate the trend of rising global military spending.
potential downsides raise serious ethical and legal concerns:
