On the fields of Flanders, tanks and machine guns heralded a new age of mechanized destruction. The advent of TNT brought explosive power to battlefields long before the atomic bomb changed the face of war forever.\nAt a certain point, technological developments meant that physical strength, and even numerical superiority, could be largely decoupled from victory. Those with the biggest guns, and smartest machines, won out.\nNow, as we enter an AI age, many wonder how machines will transform conflict once more.\n*****\nMichael Wade is a Professor of Innovation and Strategy and Director of the IMD Global Center for Digital Business Transformation.
