Verteidigung: Frankreich will internationales Zentrum für Militär-KI gründen
Paris will bei Militär-KI unabhängiger von den USA werden. Dazu soll ein neues internationales Zentrum im Sommer 2027 starten. Die Nato hat das Vorhaben bislang nicht anerkannt.
Paris - In an effort to bolster Artificial Intelligence (AI) in defense, France plans to establish an international center. This center is set to commence operations in summer 2027, according to the French Defense Ministry, which announced the news on Thursday. The funding and the list of international members are still under finalization, it was further revealed.
The hope is for recognition from NATO. The French Defense Ministry has invited representatives from other countries for a conference next week to present its plans for this initiative. Currently, Europe is actively working to enhance its military technological capabilities and reduce its dependence on the United States. AI applications have become a key factor in warfare since Russia's invasion of Ukraine in 2022.
They contribute to accelerating battlefield decisions by processing and evaluating vast amounts of data from drones, satellites, and other sensors. However, Europe relies heavily on US companies like Palantir for much of its AI-powered military software. More: Bundeswehr aims to introduce a Palantir alternative by 2027.
