William McRaven The retired admiral who took down Osama bin Laden on why U.S. leadership matters, the AI race, and what he's going to do with $50 million
Time|April 08, 2024
You recently received the Bezos Courage and Civility Award, with $50 million to give to charities of your choice. How are you planning to use it? Almost all of this is going to be focused on veterans and their families the children who've lost fathers and mothers in combat. And the other area is mental health for servicemen. What don't the VA and the military health care system cover?

The U.S. military is seeing record-low recruitment numbers. Last year, the military services missed recruiting goals by about 41,000 recruits. How big of a concern is this? Our pipeline for young men and women coming into the military is generally through high schools, and because of COVID, military recruiters didn't have an opportunity to get in. I think we'll find in a couple years that our numbers get back up to where we need them to be.

How are you thinking about the challenges, and the opportunities, of AI when it comes to national security? It'll help us diagnose problems quicker, it will help us resolve problems quicker. Its ability to discriminate between good guys and bad guys is important. Nobody in the military wants to inadvertently kill civilians.
