In the world we have, sitting on the couch of our house, we seem to be able to do everything. With the keyboard, almost anything in the network that feeds on devices without moving is within our reach.

Have you ever heard the concept of the internet of things? It is the network that occurs when things (machines) get in touch with each other. There are many models of the Internet and there are those who imagine the Internet to make war more effective. In this war-created internet, tanks, drones, torpedoes, handguns, sensors, mines -- these are things that would happen.

We are seeing this model of war in Gaza, Israel has the opportunity to experience these technologies that it has been generating for years. War fueled by artificial intelligence is creating the internet of war devices, and war has become a more violent model of face-to-face confrontation, increasing asymmetry between the parties.

The people of Gaza are trapped. Sixteen's most effective technology in this war seems to be the network of underground tunnels. What other powers do we humans have to deal with the great influence that the current powered technology has on power relations? What should we learn from this conflict?
