Experts believe that future wars will not be fought through mushroom clouds, but with the help of quantum computer cyber attacks. Several soldiers and military intelligence experts share their views on tomorrow’s wars and the changes that could transform the field. Stay with Digiato to learn about these technologies.
In the future world, we will see the use of quantum computers, which are millions of times more powerful than conventional computers. Robotic exoskeletons can also turn soldiers into superhumans with enormous power. We should not forget the drones equipped with artificial intelligence, which will be able to easily attack their subjects.
In the following, we will get to know five predictions for the future of wars on the planet. The images of each section are also made by Midgerni artificial intelligence to show the possible image of these technologies.
Augmented reality provides superhuman senses to soldiers
Virtual reality and augmented reality will allow soldiers to see the battlefield through drones and robotic transport vehicles. Technologies such as virtual reality have already been used to train soldiers and pilots for years, says Adam Simmons, director of information security at GRC International Group.
But a more recent use of these technologies is in the field of manned drone training. “Combining VR training and AR HUD displays for drone pilots, these systems will undoubtedly be essential for the training and use of future military systems,” says Simmons.
Chris Moore, vice president of security and defense at satellite internet company OneWeb, says that most of these technologies are made available through low-Earth orbit satellites that provide high-speed communications: “Low Earth orbit communications satellites are responsible for many technological advances. “New technologies – including augmented reality, virtual reality and robotics – that will ultimately make combat forces more lethal, effective and efficient will be of great importance.”
Quantum computers can destroy the banking system
Andersen Cheng, founder and CEO of Post-Quantum, says quantum computers could enable catastrophic attacks against global power grids and banking systems.
Instead of using zero and one, these computers use qubits, which can be zero, one, or simultaneously zero and one. As a result, they can have much more power. Experts worry that the power of quantum computers will allow hackers to break encryption.
Cryptographic technology has been used for decades to keep all the world’s information secure, from banking data to military information. Now, with the increasing development of quantum computers, everything is at risk. IBM is one of the companies producing these computers, which recently built a system with more than 400 qubits.
“Quantum computers will be millions of times faster than classical computers thanks to the use of qubits, which can be one, zero or both at the same time,” says Cheng. This exponential progress means that one day we will finally reach a breakthrough in quantum technologies, and we will have to prepare for it in advance instead of responding to the problem after it happens.”
Of course, these predictions are currently based on the general information available about quantum computers. It is possible that systems are being developed in secret and we are far behind them.
“When a supercomputer is launched, we won’t see mushroom clouds on the horizon anymore, instead we can expect attacks that can target everything from energy infrastructure to financial institutions,” Cheng continues.
Cheng says groups possibly linked to China and Russia are already stealing encrypted data to crack when quantum computers become available. “Any data that might be sensitive in the next 5 to 15 years and doesn’t stand up to quantum standards is likely to be at risk,” he explains.
Artificial intelligence takes full control of the fighters
According to Carlton King, former MI6 agent and author, artificial intelligence will take full control of warplanes in the future. Using this technology to guide the planes will be a very attractive and useful idea for the heads of the army.
“When you give the power of machine learning to an autonomous robot, you lose control,” says King. But there’s a temptation to tell you, ‘Let the robot do it all.'” He believes that in the United States and Britain, pilots are currently in control of the drones, but military chiefs are likely to soon move to remove humans from the equation.
King claims that the military will turn to artificial intelligence because human reactions are not as fast as computers, and with the help of these machine models, it is possible to decide in a shorter time when to shoot a subject and when to hold hands.
Biotechnology and nanotechnology improve soldiers
Cybersecurity consultant and member of ISACA’s Emerging Trends Task Force, Pablo Balarin Osito, says future soldiers could be equipped with tools that keep them safe from harm on the battlefield through biotechnology and nanotechnology.
These technologies can improve the performance of soldiers and improve their medical conditions, and even lead to the creation of new types of weapons. “Future technologies are already involved in wars, but they have the potential to affect existing conflicts in different ways,” Osito says. All these events cause various moral, legal and humanitarian concerns.”
Osito says it’s essential to make sure these technologies are built to minimize harm to civilians, and that there are rules at the international level for everyone to follow.
Cyborgs will fight alongside robots
Soldiers of the future will use robotic exoskeletons, humanoid robots, and autonomous drones. General Robert Kahn predicts that a quarter of the US military will be replaced by robots by 2030 to make the military more lethal and agile.
“The use of robots and automated systems (including unmanned ground vehicles, robotic exoskeletons, and even automated combat systems) on the battlefield can reduce threats to human soldiers and enhance combat capabilities,” Osito says.
