The way wars are waged has changed dramatically in recent decades. Automated weapons, artificial intelligence, and the declining role of ground troops raise new questions. Does modern warfare lower the threshold for violence? How does the increasing role of Big Tech companies shift the global balance of power? In this program, we home in on the technological front of war: from cyberwars and communication disruptions to border surveillance drones, military simulations, and the widespread adoption of new war technoligies in other domains of life.
Content warning: this program depicts war and grief.
