How NATO can integrate AI to prevail in future algorithmic warfare atlanticcouncil.org 14 facts
perspectiveNATO should educate the public and political elites about AI to prevent strategy debates from becoming influenced by hype.
perspectiveNATO can protect its AI edge and defend against adversarial attacks by investing in AI literacy and redundancy, elevating the electromagnetic spectrum within the multidomain operations concept, and projecting resilience with measured ambiguity.
claimDeterrence by ambiguity is a strategy that protects NATO's AI advantage without provoking adversaries into developing new countermeasures.
referenceIn 1995, NATO defined artificial intelligence as the capability of a functional unit to perform tasks generally associated with human intelligence, such as reasoning and learning.
perspectiveNATO's competitive advantage in emerging and disruptive technologies relies on treating artificial intelligence as a general-purpose enabler embedded across the Alliance's digital backbone, rather than as a stand-alone weapon.
claimNATO's AI Strategy focuses on anticipating new challenges and risks related to algorithmic warfare arising from the adversarial use of artificial intelligence.
perspectiveNATO should anchor its AI strategy in the core principles of literacy and redundancy, reinforced through a coordinated approach to the AI tech industry to avoid risks of stale knowledge and deskilling.
perspectiveNATO should integrate AI education into professional military education, operational exercises, and staff development programs to ensure leaders understand the capabilities and limitations of current AI models.
claimImproving the resilience of NATO's AI architecture requires lawmakers to align national legislative requirements regarding strict data standards and protocols for insider-outsider threat detection.
perspectiveFor NATO, understanding where AI will transform operations and how adversaries might target the vulnerabilities of AI-enabled systems is a prerequisite for credible deterrence and effective defense in the era of algorithmic warfare.
referenceBy 2005, NATO defined artificial intelligence as the branch of computer science focused on building systems that reason, learn, and improve themselves.
claimThe Atlantic Council report 'How NATO can integrate AI to prevail in future algorithmic warfare' aims to address the implications of future military AI countermeasures on NATO’s doctrine and strategy, including risks of integrating AI into military systems, vulnerabilities created by AI adoption, and the severity of adversarial attacks.
claimArtificial intelligence is becoming a general-purpose military technology that will be integrated into almost every digital system used by NATO.
claimNATO is integrating AI-enabled capabilities into its digital transformation and decision-support systems as part of its broader military strategy.
