With this amplified interest in defence AI, a new financial actor has entered the military domain: venture capital. In the United States, VC investment in defence startups has skyrocketed. A similar trend is noticeable in Europe, where billions are being funneled into AI-drone startup companies, spurred by escalating conflicts around the globe. VC investment is a "high-risk, high-reward" way of financing military technologies, requiring fast-paced exponential growth at scale ("blitzscaling") and the disruption of existing markets.

But with disruption comes debris. What happens when military organisations, which must navigate ethical questions pertaining to life and death, become shaped in the image of Silicon Valley and VC funding? This talk with Professor Elke Schwarz (Queen Mary University of London) traces the ways in which military AI, venture capital, and military organisation become entangled – financially, operationally, and semiotically – in ways that may enroll the globe into even greater instability for the foreseeable future.

The seminar will also be streamed to NUPI's YouTube channel:
