Abstract
Military conflicts could cause global catastrophes today due to the intersection of AI and nuclear weapons development. Security actions against these risks still need to be established, and this chapter emphasises the urgency of such responses by analysing six hypothetical scenarios in which the use of AI systems could increase the likelihood of nuclear catastrophe.
