 Invitation to register: Stockholm Security Conference 2021

 On 8-11 November 2021, the Stockholm International Peace Research
Institute (SIPRI) will host the sixth annual Stockholm Security Conference
(SSC 21). The theme of this year's conference is ‘Battlefields of the
Future: Trends of Conflict and Warfare in the 21st Century'.

 The conference will explore how current developments in technology have
opened potential new battlefields of the future and the means to prevent
and mitigate associated risks. Additionally, the conference will examine to
what extent the more traditional types of warfare are adapting to newly
available means or providing non-traditional actors with new opportunities
to have a bigger role.

 SSC 21 will connect the battlefields of the future to the ones of the past
through a live stream of the Ypres Peace Prize ceremony. This ceremony will
close the conference on Thursday 11 November.

===================

I don't quite know whether it is especially computer science or its subdiscipline Artificial Intelligence that has such an enormous affection for euphemism. We speak so spectacularly and so readily of computer systems that understand, that see, decide, make judgments, and so on, without ourselves recognizing our own superficiality and immeasurable naivete with respect to these concepts. And, in the process of so speaking, we anesthetise our ability to evaluate the quality of our work and, what is more important, to identify and become conscious of its end use.  […] One can't escape this state without asking, again and again: "What do I actually do? What is the final application and use of the products of my work?" and ultimately, "am I content or ashamed to have contributed to this use?"
-- Prof. Joseph Weizenbaum ["Not without us", ACM SIGCAS 16(2-3) 2--7 - Aug. 1986]
