Abstract

The risk of a lack of consensus on the development and use of artificial intelligence in the defense domain may have significant negative implications in the future. Such incoherence in the relationship can cause the strategic vulnerability of the largest global military and technological powers precisely through the negative manifestations of use in an undefined environment. The importance of achieving consensus within the joint activities of the United Nations, the European Union, the United States of America, the People's Republic of China and the Russian Federation provides artificial intelligence with a strong basis for ethical acceptance and establishing norms and rules of global use. Assessing the impact of artificial intelligence on the development of the national security strategy is an important factor in shaping the future defense system. Just as terrorism, the proliferation of nuclear and biological weapons and unconventional threats have become an integral part of the consideration of a wide number of national security strategies of sovereign states, so it is necessary that artificial intelligence be a part of consideration and a formal part of shaping the security system, at all levels from global to local. This work should, through a short strategic assessment, bring artificial intelligence closer to the professional public and contribute to its actualization and implementation in normative and legal strategic documents of states and global security and defense organizations.
