The issue of integrating artificial intelligence (AI) into nuclear and nuclear-related weapon systems is increasingly drawing attention in the global security environment. Developments in this field create new risks and opportunities in international relations. In this context, the application of AI in systems related to nuclear weapons must be seriously investigated by security policymakers and experts.
Redaksiya reports that this report aims to advance discussions on the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into nuclear and nuclear-related weapon systems. To this end, it seeks to identify commonalities in AI-nuclear risk assessments, explore existing discussions and approaches to human control, and provide practical recommendations for progress. The report evaluates the risks and threats arising from the increasing role of AI in nuclear weapon systems.
The report thoroughly analyzes various aspects of AI application in nuclear weapon systems, including risk assessments, human control, and recommendations for the future. Risk assessments aim to identify potential threats and vulnerabilities arising from the use of AI in nuclear weapon systems. These include risks such as intentional or unintentional damage to systems, dissemination of incorrect information, or the adoption of inadequate decisions. The issue of human control relates to how the role of AI in nuclear weapon systems is managed and overseen by humans. This considers the role of the human factor in decision-making and the potential dangers of automated AI decisions.
The report analyzes various approaches and discussions regarding the application of AI in nuclear weapon systems. This includes ethical, legal, and security issues arising from the increasing role of AI in nuclear weapon systems. The report also reviews existing international discussions and approaches in this area, including arms control, nuclear non-proliferation, and international legal norms. At the end of the report, practical recommendations for the future are presented concerning the application of AI in nuclear weapon systems. These recommendations cover issues such as risk reduction, strengthening human control, and increasing international cooperation. This aims to ensure the safe and responsible implementation of AI in nuclear weapon systems.
