Comment by Carlos Javier Floriano Corrales

The incorporation of artificial intelligence into the defense and security sector is not an option; it is a reality, a strategic necessity. The ability of artificial intelligence to process data, anticipate scenarios and therefore make the best decisions has made it indispensable for armed forces worldwide. [...] This implies not only ensuring that the technology is implemented safely, complying with ethical and legal standards, but also guaranteeing that it delivers real improvements in the responsiveness and operational efficiency of our Armed Forces in the face of current and future challenges. At the same time, we must [...] avoid certain risks. That is why it is necessary to update our defense policies to ensure that the use of artificial intelligence is safe, legitimate, and beneficial. [...] I believe we are on a path with no turning back, and we must be protagonists in moving along a safe, legitimate, and stable route, so that our Armed Forces continue to be a guarantee of our security and our competitiveness in the future.
