Palmer Luckey discusses a hypothetical future conflict with China over Taiwan, emphasizing the need for the U.S. to innovate and mass-produce autonomous defense systems to deter aggression. He argues that the U.S. military's outdated technology and lack of capacity make it vulnerable, and that China's dominance in chip manufacturing would cause a global economic crisis if Taiwan were seized. Luckey explains how his company, Anduril, aims to address these issues by developing advanced, cost-effective defense products, particularly AI-powered systems, to augment existing forces and ensure a strong deterrent. He defends the ethical use of AI in warfare, stating that it can enhance decision-making and reduce collateral damage, and highlights Anduril's role in the IVAS program, creating augmented reality headsets for the U.S. Army to improve soldiers' situational awareness and collaboration with AI systems.
