## Resource

On today’s Strategy Series program, sponsored by General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Dr. Jim Lewis of the Center for European Policy Analysis and Justin Sherman of the Global Cyber Strategies advisory firm and the Center for Strategic and International Studies join Defense & Aerospace Report Editor Vago Muradian to discuss the Trump administration’s adoption of AI for national security and how the technology was used during the recent Iran war; whether learning the right lessons from the Iran war can help the US military improve capabilities to better deter China; the call by leading AI firms to delay development of new models to improve security; and potential national security implications on abrupt and growing public backlash to data centers.
