Hyperwar is warfare which is algorithmic or controlled by Artificial intelligence (AI), with little to no human decision making. Coined by John R. Allen and Amir Husain, it is a portmanteau from the Ancient Greek preposition and prefix hyper (ὑπέρ, 'beyond') and the English "war".[1][2] Due to the autonomous nature of AI, it could rapidly increase the speed of warfare, especially if more than one side is relying on AI.[1] AI is not limited to new weapons such as drones or cyberwar, it can affect all forms of military planning.[1]
