HELLO FUTURE: AI, Global Conflict & Economic Shifts Reshaping Tomorrow

What does modern warfare actually look like in the age of AI, cyber attacks, and digital surveillance? In this episode of HELLO FUTURE, Kevin Cirilli sits down with Patrick Tucker, Science and Technology Editor at Defense One and author of The Naked Future, to unpack how emerging technology is reshaping global conflict. As tensions with Iran dominate headlines, Tucker explains how modern battles are increasingly fought not just with missiles and aircraft, but with cyber tools, electronic warfare, and advanced intelligence systems. From hacking critical infrastructure to disrupting communications and air defenses, the next generation of warfare is as much about code as it is about conventional weapons. Cirilli and Tucker explore how the United States and its allies are using technology to gain strategic advantages, why digital battlefields are becoming central to national security, and what this means for the future of global conflict. The conversation also looks ahead: how artificial intelligence, predictive data systems, and autonomous technologies could redefine how wars are fought — and prevented. If you want to understand how technology is transforming the battlefield, this episode offers a clear look at the future of conflict.Meet The Future: https://mtf.tv/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
