This is incredibly interesting and extremely important. It has clear implications for infrastructure and security, particularly energy infrastructure which I am most interested in.
My Dad used to write software for large technology companies. When he was with Control Data, they had just finished a huge project where they automated a ton of processed for the local energy company to make it more efficient.
When I was in college and the internet got big I and I was touting all this cool stuff you could do, he told me about this project they did way back in the 70's. He said it terrified him at the time because it took the human element out of the equation. If something went wrong, it could do some serious damage. A misplaced decimal point here and it could basically bring down an entire region of the power grid.
He always said the software was great, but it made the people using it lazy - which is where the real danger is.
This is the future of war.
