đź“š Lecture: "The History of the Future of War"
🎤 Speaker: Dr. Lance Lewis
Join us for a thought-provoking evening with Dr. Lance Lewis as he explores the evolving landscape of warfare through history and technology. Throughout the ages, humanity has mistakenly believed that each new conflict would be fundamentally different from the last. From the longbow to the aircraft carrier, and now to drones and autonomous weapons, each technological leap has promised to revolutionize conflict.
In this engaging lecture, Dr. Lewis will examine how culture, leadership, and human motivations invariably shape warfare in unexpected ways. As we face an era where algorithms and machines may dictate the terms of war, he raises critical questions: If war becomes a contest of robots, who is truly fighting? And who is accountable when things go awry?
Drawing on his extensive background as a retired Marine Colonel and FA-18 pilot, Dr. Lewis combines history with real-world experience to analyze whether warfare is becoming inhuman or if it remains inherently human at its core.
Don’t miss this opportunity to gain insights into the future of warfare!
