Strategic stability has long been strongly correlated with nuclear deterrence policies. As we enter the age of AI, how should we re-examine strategic stability? AI is increasingly integrated into intelligence analysis, early-warning systems, command-and-control links, autonomous combat platforms, and military decision-making processes, creating new opportunities while also introducing new uncertainties. As decision cycles keep shortening and the transparency of military operations rises markedly, will AI strengthen strategic stability, or will it heighten the risks of miscalculation, escalate crises, and erode strategic trust? As China and the United States resume intergovernmental dialogue on AI, can the international community look forward to a safer and more stable future? How can international organizations represented by the United Nations pool forces from governments, industry, academia, and other stakeholders to address these challenges? Recorded on the sidelines of the 14th World Peace Forum, this episode of SinoAI Insights features two experts on AI governance and international security. Together, they explore the prospects and challenges of building strategic stability in the age of AI.
