Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. War at the Speed of Light explores the ever-increasing and revolutionary role of directed-energy weapons in warfare, including laser, microwave, electromagnetic pulse (EMP), and cyberspace weapons. In addition, this book delineates the threat that directed-energy weapons pose to disrupting the doctrine of MAD (Mutually Assured Destruction), which has kept the major powers of the world from engaging in nuclear war. Potential U.S. adversaries like China and Russia are developing and deploying supersonic and hypersonic missiles as a means to destroy U.S. aircraft, drones, missiles, aircraft carriers, and space-based assets, such as GPS and communication satellites. Currently, the United States has no defense against these missiles. In response, the U.S. Department of Defense established the "2018 National Security Strategy," emphasising directed-energy weapons. The rationale is simple: directed-energy weapons project devastation at the speed of light, making even a hypersonic missile a relatively easy target. Louis A. Del Monte breaks down how modern warfare is changing in three fundamental ways: the pace of war is quickening, the speed at which weapons project devastation is increasingly reaching the speed of light, and now cyberspace is officially a battlefield. These essential developments in warfare are part of the reason why the United States adopted the Third Offset Strategy, and that strategy now fuels the creation and deployment of even more weapons accelerating the pace of warfare to the speed of light. In fact, Brookings Institute in Washington DC has announced that this process moves so fast, a new term has been coined to embrace the speed at which war will be waged: hyperwar. It adequately describes the quickening pace of warfare resulting from the inclusion of artificial intelligence into command, control, decision-making, and weapons of war. Del Monte breaks down the meaning of this new term and showcases how disturbingly close the world is coming to being fully armed in nuclear warfare. AUTHOR: Louis Del Monte is the CEO of Del Monte and Associates and has over thirty years experience in physics, technology, and engineering. His technological developments are currently being used by Honeywell, IBM, Samsung and the Department of Defense. Explores the ever-increasing and revolutionary role of directed-energy weapons in warfare, including laser, microwave, electromagnetic pulse (EMP), and cyberspace weapons.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Artificial intelligence is playing an ever-increasing role in military weapon systems. Going beyond the bomb-carrying drones used in the Afghan war, the Pentagon is now in a race with China and Russia to develop "lethal autonomous weapon systems" (LAWS). In this eye-opening overview, a physicist, technology expert, and former Honeywell executive examines the advantages and the potential threats to humanity resulting from the deployment of completely autonomous weapon systems. Stressing the likelihood that these weapons will be available in the coming decades, the author raises key questions about how the world will be impacted. Though using robotic systems might lessen military casualties in a conflict, one major concern is- Should we allow machines to make life-and-death decisions in battle? Other areas of concern include the following- Who would be accountable for the actions of completely autonomous weapons--the programmer, the machine itself, or the country that deploys LAWS? When warfare becomes just a matter of technology, will war become more probable, edging humanity closer to annihilation? What if AI technology reaches a "singularity level" so that our weapons are controlled by an intelligence exceeding human intelligence?Using vivid scenarios that immerse the reader in the ethical dilemmas and existential threats posed by lethal autonomous weapon systems, the book reveals that the dystopian visions of such movies as The Terminator and I, Robot may become a frightening reality in the near future. The author concludes with concrete recommendations, founded in historical precedent, to control this new arms race. "A technology expert describes the ever-increasing role of artificial intelligence in weapons development, the ethical dilemmas these weapons pose, and the potential threat to humanity."--Provided by publisher.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. Nanoweapons just might render humanity extinct in the near futurea notion that is frightening and shocking but potentially true. In Nanoweapons Louis A. Del Monte describes the most deadly generation of military weapons the world has ever encountered. With dimensions one-thousandth the diameter of a single strand of human hair, this technology threatens to eradicate humanity as it incites world governments to compete in the deadliest arms race ever. In his insightful and prescient account of this risky and radical technology, Del Monte predicts that nanoweapons will dominate the battlefield of the future and will help determine the superpowers of the twenty-first century. He traces the emergence of nanotechnology, discusses the current development of nanoweaponssuch as the mini-nuke, which weighs five pounds and carries the power of one hundred tons of TNTand offers concrete recommendations, founded in historical precedent, for controlling their proliferation and avoiding human annihilation. Most critically, Nanoweapons addresses the question: Will it be possible to develop, deploy, and use nanoweapons in warfare without rendering humanity extinct? Nanoweapons just might render humanity extinct in the near future - a notion that is frightening and shocking but potentially true. In his insightful and prescient account of this risky and radical technology, Louis A. Del Monte predicts that nanoweapons will dominate the battlefield of the future and will help determine the superpowers of the twenty-first century.
