THE NEW AI COLD WAR! With Lt. Col. Robert Maginnis - #991

Savage speaks with Lt. Col. Robert Maginnis, military strategist and author of "The New AI Cold War: Liberty vs. Tyranny in the Age of Machine Empires," about the rapidly evolving dangers and opportunities of artificial intelligence. They explore the intensifying U.S.-China competition for AI supremacy, the growing use of AI in warfare and cyberattacks, the vulnerability of critical infrastructure, and the frightening prospect of increasingly autonomous AI systems. Maginnis warns about the consequences of allowing AI to influence military decisions, particularly nuclear weapons, while Savage calls for a clear ethical framework—a "Ten Commandments of AI"—to ensure technology remains a tool serving humanity rather than becoming its leader. The conversation examines the urgent need for safeguards, accountability, and international verification before AI advances beyond human control.
