The Conflict Ledger is what happens when a newsroom invites Google’s NotebookLM to pull up a chair, grab a highlighter, and help connect the dots in an information war in real-time conflicts. It’s all part of a bigger editorial experiment project, testing what’s possible when journalists, editors, and generative AI including Canva AI Studio, Sora etc work side by side to understand how conflicts around the world get framed, reframed, and fed to the public.
Because in the war for perception, curiosity is the best defence.
⚠️Season Finale!! This episode examines how far AI has already entered the battlefield: from drone swarms and sentry guns to advanced air defense systems. We reflect on the ethical, legal, and humanitarian dilemmas of letting algorithms shape life-and-death decisions, the risks to civilians, and the accountability gaps no one has solved.
It’s a sober look at what AI in war means now, and what it could mean for the future.
Produced with Google’s NotebookLM as a research co-pilot, reviewed by human editors, with insights from our conflict monitoring work.
