Defence research has laid the groundwork for some of our greatest technological leaps – including the modern Internet. However, in the past ten years, with the advent of deep-learning techniques, massive processing power, huge databases and near-real time information, AI has started to have profound implications for the defence world.

Yet according to the European Defence Agency, few European Member States have a dedicated AI strategy for defence, instead just referencing defence in their national AI strategies. This means that joined-up thinking on this issue across the EU is challenging. Member States should work together to identify defence applications where AI can be truly helpful, where it might have incremental improvements and where we should be wary of using it.

Jennifer Baker talks to MEP Riho Terras along with Estonian IT visionary Taavi Kotka, and Fabrice Pothier from Rasmussen Global.
