Adm. Gary Roughead, U.S. Navy (Retired)
When future military capabilities are discussed these days, artificial intelligence and how it will change the nature of warfare is at the top of the list.
But within the Pentagon and the services, AI ambition does not match current budgetary realities.
And while more money is rarely the answer to every Defense Department shortcoming, militaries are what they buy.
As a former Chief of Naval Operations and former member of the Joint Chiefs of Staff who continues to participate in non-governmental dialogues in Asia, to include with China, I’ve followed China’s impressive military growth.
Chinese ships, aircraft, and technology are not as good as ours, but they are buying more and rapidly getting better. The dialogue agendas and discussions have also evolved, to include transformational technologies with AI top of mind. Unquestionably, as we move deeper into the AI modernization war, Beijing is buying in that space and doubling down.
