Description
Unit X: How the Pentagon and Silicon Valley Are Transforming the Future of War A fascinating look at an elite unit within the Pentagon, the Defense Innovation Unit, also known as Unit X, and its mission to bring Silicon Valley's cutting-edge technology to America's military. This book offers a profound and largely unseen transformation of how war is fought, with applications as significant as the invention of gunpowder or the advent of the nuclear age. Inside the AI labs, drone workshops, and battle command centers, as well as on the frontlines in Ukraine, the authors paint a vivid picture of what it takes to stay dominant in a fast-changing and often precarious geopolitical landscape. With a focus on the intersection of technology and military strategy, this book provides a unique insight into the future of war. 336 pages, hardcover.
