The Future of Technology and Nuclear Proliferation
08:03 - 16:15 (08:11)
As technology continues to advance, the risk of experiencing nuclear events becomes greater, and as we've become more reliant on technology for our fundamental infrastructure, the consequences of cyber war have shifted from silly pranks to potentially devastating attacks. In the past, avoiding catastrophic nuclear war only required two people to not push a button, but as the distance between being nuclear and non-nuclear gets smaller, the risk of nuclear events increases.

Summary
With technological progress advancing at an exponential rate, the line between nuclear and non-nuclear capabilities is becoming even more blurred. The dependence on electrical and computational systems in places like our water systems and smart grids now presents a greater threat, with potential for highly destructive cyber attacks in the future.
