A silent software arms race is unfolding—and China’s LLMs might win it without firing a shot.
China’s rapid integration of large language models (LLMs), especially its homegrown DeepSeek, is transforming military systems into agile, autonomous networks that compress decision-making loops, enhance battlefield coordination, and challenge the US military’s dominance. DeepSeek’s low-cost, low-power efficiency enables real-time integration across drones, satellites, and C2 systems, suggesting a new era of “network-centric warfare.” In contrast, US efforts suffer from fragmented software, organizational silos, and slow adaptation, despite initiatives like JADC2. If China maintains its trajectory of unified AI warfare, the balance of power in future conflicts could shift decisively.
