At the speed and intensity of the battlefield becoming more robotised, it would be natural to believe that the human element would play a significantly more minor role in modern warfare. The truth is, however, more complicated and nuanced, as Nicholas Valentine, Lead Engineer at the Human Machine Teaming, Future Capability, Innovation, DE&S explains. He advocates that what is really necessary is a change in how we think about machine-human relations. It is a must-read for anyone interested in robots on the battlefield.
