The cost of failing to regulate AI warfare is already too highThere is an Israeli military strategy called the “fog procedure”.

Shoot into the darkness and call it deterrence. With the dawn of AI warfare, that same logic of chosen blindness has been refined, systematized, and handed off to a machine.
