From Professor Schultz: Naval War College graduates must think, lead, and fight at the frontier. This goes beyond the frontiers of sea and air to include the frontier of techno-scientific change where humans and machines cooperate and collide. This presentation provides some perspective on the evolving relationship between human and machine. It uses historical and modern concepts to examine how human-machine fusion advances our creativity. It includes the fears associated with robotic overlords and Orwellian consequences, along with what it means to be human--and how we can lead--in the age of technology.
