Now not only generals and soldiers on the battlefield, but also AI ‘chatbots’ on the computer screen will decide on which enemy to drop the missile first. The US Department of Defense (Pentagon) has recently signed a deal with XAI and OpenAI for the use of AI in secret military networks.

The Pentagon is now adding AI as an ‘adviser’ to its war strategy. This technology will now not only collect data, but will also advise humans during the war as to which enemy targets should be targeted first based on the current situation and the location of the aircraft. However, the final decision will be taken by humans only.

Priority of attacks will be decided by direct interaction with chatbots

Till now the US Army used technology like ‘Maven’ project to identify targets based on drone footage and photographs. Now a new layer of smart chatbots like ChatGPT and Grok is being added to it. According to the military officer, soldiers will be able to ask him directly which goals should be given first priority. This speeds up the process, but the challenge is to test the veracity of these machine suggestions, as the new AI draws conclusions directly from the data.

Use of AI increased in army operations

More than 160 girls were killed in the recent attack on an Iranian school during the US-Iran war. Although the Pentagon is still investigating it, but according to the report the attack was caused by an American missile. Old and wrong data was responsible for this strike. In some reports, it is also being said that ‘Cloud’ and ‘Maven’ technology will be used in the decisions regarding this goal. The same technique was also used in Venezuelan operations, but it is not yet clear.

The challenge is that companies impose certain limitations on their systems, but it is not clear how effective they will be during war. Trump even described some companies as ‘supply chain risks’, meaning technological dependencies that could be shut down or hacked in times of war.

Chatbot scans data to prioritize targets

During warfare, huge amounts of data comes in every second from drones, satellites, radar and intelligence sources. During this, the AI ​​chatbot rapidly scans the data and identifies patterns. After this, it assesses the threat and decides which target can be attacked immediately. The chatbot also suggests which weapon will be most effective on a target, so that action can be taken with precision. However, under international rules, the final approval is given by the human soldier.
