Author and international security expert Ankit Panda joins IST Chief Executive Officer for a fireside chat to discuss his new book, ‘The New Nuclear Age: At the Precipice of Armageddon’, and the changing landscape of nuclear security amid rapid technological change and new emerging challenges. How do emerging technologies—such as artificial intelligence (AI), hypersonic capabilities, quantum sensing, cyberweapons, and space domains—present challenges and opportunities in the new nuclear age? And what can be done about it?
The discussion will chart the origins of our new nuclear age, delving into today’s nuclear threats, the intersection of emerging technologies and nuclear risk, shifts in the global nuclear order, and evolutions in nuclear strategy and force posture from the United States, Russia, China, and other nuclear states. An audience Q&A will follow.
