Retired ninth Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and Distinguished Professor in the Sam Nunn School of International Affairs Admiral Sandy Winnefeld, USN (ret.), interviewed the 32nd United States Deputy Secretary of Defense, in CBS News “Intelligence Matters.” 

Excerpt:

It would be interesting to see if there were ever a point when the advantages conferred on an opponent by using AI start to so eclipse our own capability that we have to consider looking at other ways. Speaking of China, Chinese entrepreneur Kai-Fu Lee says that to have good commercial AI, you have to have four things, a lot of government support, decent engineers, ruthless entrepreneurs and lots of data. Given that, and given China's somewhat serious advantages in commercial AI, can we compete with them in the defense space in AI?
