Introducing “Warfare in the Robotics Age“—exploring the future of conflict

The emergence of robotics and autonomous systems is reshaping the landscape of warfare. In our latest publication, “Warfare in the Robotics Age,” Ash Rossiter and Peter Layton navigate the complex dynamics of conflict in the Robotics Age and explore the opportunities and challenges that lie ahead.

Authored by leading experts in military strategy and technology, this groundbreaking book delves into the multifaceted implications of robotics in contemporary warfare. From unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and autonomous ground vehicles to advanced artificial intelligence capabilities, the chapters offer a comprehensive analysis of the capabilities, challenges, and ethical considerations surrounding the integration of robotics into military operations.

Robots are increasingly being used by the military. For what operational purposes? How will this reshape the conduct of war? What are the strategies and capabilities being developed by China, Russia, the US, and other nations, and with what impact on international relations?

Readers will explore cutting-edge developments in robotics technology and their profound impact on combat operations, intelligence gathering, and strategic decision-making. Through a series of in-depth studies and expert analysis, “Warfare in the Robotics Age” sheds light on the strategic implications of robotics for national security, defence policy, and international relations.

Whether you’re a military professional, policymaker, or technology enthusiast, this book provides invaluable insights into the future of warfare in an era defined by robotics and artificial intelligence. Top of Form
