The Strategy and Security Podcast

In this talk, Sir Brian sets out the framework of international humanitarian law, focusing on its application in conflicts involving air power in complex operations ranging from Iraq to Nagorno-Karabakh. This era has seen increasing reliance on unmanned systems with gradually increasing levels of autonomy causing, on occasions, the legal envelope to be stretched to the limit and beyond. He also gives some thoughts on how increasing levels of artificial intelligence in combat systems will create new problems for commanders and legislators. facebook- https://www.facebook.com/stratsecsoc linkedin- https://www.linkedin.com/company/strategy-security-society-uofg/ instagram- @statsecsocuofg twitter- https://twitter.com/StratSecSocUofG
