An array of tools powered by artificial intelligence (AI) are under development or already in use in the defence sector.
For instance, BAE Systems, a global defence contracting company, has unveiled the industry’s first AI-powered learning system that aims to instruct military trainees to be “mission-ready” faster.
Blending human and machine intelligence, AI weaponisation in warfare, such as autonomous weapons, can improve military capabilities via rapid data processing and more accurate targeting.
However, researchers and critics caution against this appetite for the acceleration of AI in the defence industry, noting that several of these development companies operate without checks on transparency and accountability.
AI presenter Priya Lakhani joins this week’s AI Decoded to discuss the military use of AI-enabled weapons.
