The use of robotics (or other forms of intelligent agents) in warfare has existed since WW2. Nonetheless, such advanced technologies should not fall into the hands of the immoral or the malevolent.
Such wars, however, can be unquestionably and unprecedently destructive, maybe to the extent of a global technological meltdown. In the next big war, AI will be king! Robots that are quicker, stronger, and more accurate will determine who the victor is. Robots that can understand their context, and deal with novelty in an open world could be a viable solution. We aim to determine whether it is possible to reduce those human costs through the deployment of computational agents and artificial intelligence (AI). Simply recruiting a soldier costs $15,000 the cost of treating an injured US solider is about $2 million a year ( Bilmes, 2014). To account for the increased lethality of war, a vast budget is required to maintain an active duty army. Battle lines have now become opaque an attack can come from terrorists who easily blend in as civilians, drones that are undetectable to the eye, or ballistic missiles launched from 500 miles away. The nature of war has changed significantly since the end of World War 2.
