The dramatic shift in global politics over the past year has begun to shape the conversation around the responsible military use of artificial intelligence. The global leaders in AI, the United States and China, appear increasingly detached from one of the major international dialogues on its military applications—at least for the moment.
This was apparent last week in A Coruña, Spain, when state delegations and representatives from the AI industry, academia, and civil society convened the third multistakeholder summit on Responsible Artificial Intelligence in the Military Domain (REAIM), which aims to direct the future of international cooperation in the field. The previous two summits have produced “outcome documents” that were largely backed by the delegations in attendance. Both the 2023 “Call to Action” and the 2024 “Blueprint for Action” [PDF] were endorsed by about sixty countries. This year, only thirty-five nations—neither the United States nor China among them—endorsed the outcomes document, “Pathways to Action” [PDF].
