Discussions regarding the harms of AI have largely focused on misinformation and labor force displacement. However, the Global North appears to be increasingly concerned about the national security risks posed by military applications of generative AI. This panel will outline these risks and discuss the scope of regulating them.

• Is it possible for large language models to somehow proliferate the expert-level knowledge required to make lethal weapons?
