Sažetak
The rapid advancement of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) has significantly affected global security, offering both transformative opportunities and new challenges. On the positive side, AI and ICT enhance surveillance, threat detection, and cybersecurity, enabling proactive responses to cyberattacks, terrorism, and natural disasters. They also improve military capabilities, crisis management, and disaster response, saving lives and optimising resources. However, these technologies also introduce risks, including the weaponisation of AI, cybersecurity threats, privacy concerns, disinformation campaigns, and widening global inequalities. Malicious actors exploit AI for sophisticated cyberattacks and autonomous weapons, while surveillance technologies raise ethical and civil liberty issues. To address these challenges, global cooperation is essential to establish ethical standards, strengthen cybersecurity, and promote digital literacy. By balancing innovation with regulation, the global community can harness the benefits of ICT and AI while mitigating their risks, ensuring a safer and more secure future.
