The new era of controlled war with AI has arrived
The war in Ukraine is accelerating the military revolution with drones controlled by AI. It is changing the global military strategy towards automation, although there is concern about delegating lethal decisions to machines.
The Saker Scout, a drone developed by Ukrainian company Twist Robotics, is equipped with artificial intelligence software that enables it to recognize and attack military targets with a high degree of autonomy. The drone's AI can identify 47 categories of military equipment and assign a success percentage to its targets, allowing it to search, detect, and attack without human intervention once it is within a designated "kill box".
The use of AI in the Ukraine-Russia conflict has significantly accelerated the decision-making process, reducing the time it takes to detect and launch an attack from 20 minutes to less than two minutes. The technology has also increased the number of targets that can be attacked, with the US system Maven reportedly able to identify up to 1,000 targets per day.
