The Horizon Audiofiles - Ep 049 - Rethinking Ethics In The Face Of Nuclear Threats

Decision-making regarding target engagement, including
considerations for scenarios involving the tactical use of
nuclear weapons, requires a multilayered, well-structured,
predictable, and traceable approach. The integration of AI into
such high-stakes scenarios amplifies the need for transparency,
aligning decision-making models to trusted tenets and focused
training (the 3Ts) in order to avoid the five cognitive pitfalls
of overreliance, information overload, groupthink, misperception,
and unrecognised systemic bias. For AI to be effectively
integrated into Nuclear Command, Control and Communication (NC3)
networks, decision makers delegated target engagement authority
must have a clear understanding of the capabilities and
limitations of the AI system, just as they understand the
capabilities and limitations of their other team members. AI is
not something to be feared, but it should be approached with a
degree of healthy scepticism. The 3T framework provides a useful
heuristic for ensuring proper integration and use of AI-enabled
NC3 systems and decision-making processes.
