So all armies will end up promoting big hero 6 and NextGen as movies to inspire their next soldiers? An internship at Fransokyo for all till they're promoted to MIT (or amazon warehouse) to stop thinking about weapons? Or to any equivalent R&D place in Europe or Asia/China...

Umm... No? I mean i guess it's nice to think that. Sorry, i dont have a bone of humour in my body 🤷🏿‍♂️.

It's more like morals & steadfast principles will sought after more in soldiers & the ability to make decisions under pressure will be more valuable per soldier than it already is.

Not sure what to say about IT grads, but given we're entering a more "your security is your problem" world, defense budgets are gonna keep rising, and ofc that money is going to much more than troop & equipment procurement

(im not in the military, this is all guesses from listening to IR & geopolitical & military podcasts & stuff)

I think AI bot-soldiers could be used to replace real soldiers who are now protecting borders and monuments around the world, not sure about real soldiers used in defense. In that case I think drones will play the major role for a long time. The AI used in soldier helmets might help but not so much if you consider it's already used in the form of algorithms: AI will be just an upgrade
