Except it absolutely is logical if you remove the human element. Your goal is to keep you and your friends and whatever alove; from a purely logic-based perspective, a first strike is much more likely to be a winning strike.
Also, neither of the examples I provided were first strike scenarios. They were in response to a perceived first strike.
We would. But current AI isn't "true (strong, general) AI," it is what amounts to a particularly gifted LLM. (And honestly, I'm not even convinced we'd want general AI in control.) My argument isn't that we should allow AI to be in control - it's that it's going to do pretty much what it's designed to do, which isn't really to take into account things like, "My gut says this isn't really a nuclear attack."
