The cover of this week’s TIME Magazine has a bold headline: “The First AI War.” The subtitle: “Palantir and other tech giants are building the future of battle in Ukraine.”The writer of this cover story is Vera Bergengruen, a senior correspondent at TIME.And Vera joins us today at AI-Curious.We cover: How Ukraine is using AI and what it’s accomplishing (3:00); how they’ve created a “war lab” that's a testing ground for new innovations (12:00); privacy and ethical concerns (23:00); repercussions for the future of war (37:00); and some behind-the-scenes from her reporting (40:30).Important topic. And Vera's the perfect guest to discuss it.
