A wargame is, at bottom, an instrument for producing knowledge — about an adversary, a plan, a possible future, or a decision-maker's own judgment. Adding AI to that process isn't a technical upgrade. It changes what a wargame can credibly claim to tell us, and how far we should trust what comes out of it.
In this WWN talk, Baptiste Alloui-Cros will explore how those stakes shift as AI moves between roles — adjudicating outcomes, designing scenarios, playing as opponent or teammate — and as the purpose of the game changes, from training and exploration to analysis. Each combination raises its own problems of validity.
Drawing on the experimental core of his doctoral research, he will argue that the value of AI-enabled wargaming depends less on the sophistication of the…
