In this episode of The NIDS View, Jim and Curtis dive into one of the most consequential questions facing national security today: How will artificial intelligence reshape deterrence? From enhanced decision-making to the potential for miscalculation, they break down the dual-edged nature of AI as both a strategic asset and a source of new risks. The conversation explores how AI could amplify geopolitical power in both high- and low-trust worlds and challenge long‑standing assumptions about AI confidence, signaling, and escalation. Clear-eyed and thought‑provoking, this episode offers a grounded look at why understanding AI’s role in deterrence is essential for leaders, policymakers, and anyone tracking the future of global security.
