Academy training 2

We will explore AI’s transformative role in defense and security, and examine how intelligent systems are reshaping modern warfare, protection strategies, and information operations. From autonomous weapons to AI-powered disinformation campaigns, we’ll navigate the complex landscape where artificial intelligence serves as both shield and sword in conventional and cognitive battlespaces. Attendees will discover three critical insights: how the convergence of AI and physical/informational systems creates unprecedented security capabilities and vulnerabilities simultaneously; the widening gap between AI-powered offensive technologies and our frameworks for controlling them; and emerging market opportunities for startups and investors at the frontier of defense AI, including high-growth segments where venture capital is fueling the next generation of dual-use technologies that address algorithmic warfare and computational propaganda in an era where perception has become as strategic as physical dominance.
