Ukraine’s former commander-in-chief Oleksandr Syrskyi says the war will become more technological, with greater use of robots, automated systems and AI. He told the BBC that even conventional weapons are getting AI-based control systems, while arguing that people will remain responsible for controlling them.
Why it mattersThat is a striking description of where battlefield technology may be heading, from a former senior commander speaking about the war he led. It is his assessment, not a timetable for when those systems will be deployed.
