PodMAPS is a podcast series exploring how artificial intelligence is transforming the military domain, and what it means for international peace and security.  

The final episode asks: what might a successful future for military AI look like in practice? A diverse group of experts offer their visions, concerns, and hopes – from the United Nations to civil society, academia, and young professionals who will inherit the frameworks being built today. Topics include the pace of AI integration into the military domain, meaningful inclusivity versus tokenism, the challenge of verification, and bridging the gap between technical and policy communities.  

Featuring Izumi Nakamitsu (UN High Representative for Disarmament Affairs), Isabelle Jones (Stop Killer Robots), Dr. Michael Horowitz (Perry World House, University of Pennsylvania), Sofia Romansky (HCSS), Dr. Saeed Aldhaheri (University of Dubai), Joon Baek (Youth for Privacy), Dr. Bruce Watson (GC REAIM Commissioner), and Yasmin Afina (UNIDIR). Hosted and produced by Ulysse Richard (UNODA) as part of the Military AI, Peace & Security (MAPS) Dialogues, funded by the Republic of Korea.
