Germany's decision to supply Taurus cruise missiles to Ukraine is being delayed by Chancellor Olaf Scholz.

The focus should shift to a more realistic understanding of what individual weapons can accomplish.

American Thinker: AI Is a gun, not a nuke
The comparison of Artificial Intelligence to nuclear weapons does not hold up. AI is more like a gun than a nuclear weapon. Nuclear weapons bring mutual destruction, while guns can be countered by other guns. Similarly, intelligence, like guns, should be widely accessible to avoid an imbalance of resources and information. Open-source AI models help level the playing field and prevent centralization. Regulations would only benefit large corporations and hinder competition. We must not fall for scare tactics and support regulations that limit access to AI.
