Student / Young Pugwash (SYP) organises an annual conference on peace and disarmament. The subject of the 7th conference, held in January 2024 at King’s College London, was ‘Artificial Intelligence: Implications for Peace and Security’.Our aim was to encourage new thinking on the legal, political and technical questions associated with this topic, with a focus on ethical science.
The articles in this collection were written by some of those who presented at the conference. The authors cover a range of topical and important ground concerning the past, present and future of AI, including in relation to nuclear energy and nuclear weapons.
