Adopting AI: How familiarity breeds both trust and contempt
Bending the Automation Bias Curve: A Study of Human and AI-Based Decision Making in National Security Contexts
Uses of artificial intelligence (AI) are growing around the world. What will influence AI adoption in the international security realm? Research on automation bias suggests that humans can often be overconfident in AI, whereas research on algorithm aversion shows that, as the stakes of a decision rise, humans become more cautious about trusting algorithms. We theorize about the relationship between background knowledge about AI, trust in AI, and …
Who Gets Smart? Explaining How Precision Bombs Proliferate
Smart weapons represent a key element of military power for countries around the world, and nothing symbolizes them more than smart bombs—the guided aerial bombs that the United States debuted in the Vietnam War. Yet, international relations scholars know little about these weapons and what explains their proliferation. In this paper, we theorize about the key drivers of smart bomb proliferation, including an interaction between the security envi…
How Joe Biden can use confidence-building measures for military uses of AI
Autonomous naval ships, algorithms to interpret drone video footage – the US military and other armed forces around the world are thinking about how to incorporate applications of artificial intelligence systems into their operations. The Biden administration has an opportunity to foster international cooperation on military AI to reduce the risk of inadvertent conflict while still pursuing US military leadership

The Future of Military Applications of Artificial Intelligence: A Role for Confidence-Building Measures
Narratives of Sexual Abstinence: A Qualitative Study of Female Adolescents in a Cape Town Community
The paper draws upon critical health psychology to explore decision-making around sexual abstinence among adolescent girls in Ocean View, a poor, ‘coloured’ neighbourhood in Cape Town, South Africa. These girls ‘deviate’ from the norm in that they have chosen sexual abstinence in a context characterised by high levels of adolescent promiscuity. Their sexual decisionmaking is found to be a means whereby the participants attempt to challenge destru…
