In terms of international security dynamics, we live in a world of nuclear prominence and, simultaneously, a world of growing cyber persistence. This presentation will explore the distribution of power dynamics associated with these two distinct strategic environments and the different approaches to national security they necessitate. The talk will then examine the crucial question of how these two strategic environments might intersect, and how the radically shifting technological terrain of cyberspace, including the advent of more powerful machine learning, will impact this intersection.
