"The DoD and AI"


 
Hello John and Doves,
 
Looking at these recent July article titles certainly helps explain this recent Senate bill to prevent Artificial Intelligence from launching nuclear weapons.
So AI Has Come to This?
 
"The US Army wants help with "continuous, real-time predictive visualization" of enemy actions.  The project is spurred by fears that human analysts won't be able to keep up with complex warfare.  The US Army wants AI that can predict what the enemy will do just minutes before the enemy actually does it."
 
"The goal is a system that can rapidly analyze massive amounts of data - far more than humans can absorb - to forecast enemy actions and continuously update that forecast as adversaries change their tactics."
The US Army is looking for help from AI to predict what its enemies will do minutes or even hours before they do it

The U.S. DoD is running military exercises now until the end of July "to determine AI's use in decision-making and regarding sensors and firepower."  So far, the results are "highly successful".  "Very fast."  "The AI tools..could handle a request that included processing secret-level and classified data - which would take humans hours or days to complete - in just 10 minutes."  They "just did it live...with secret-level data."
 
They are testing AI with a Chinese invasion of Taiwan.
 
And they are concerned with something that AI has a habit of doing - hallucinating.  "Hallucinations refer to instances when an AI generates untrue results not backed by real-world data.  AI hallucinations can be false content, news, or information about people, events or facts."
 
The U.S. military "used a tool called Donovan by developer Scale AI to determine the outcome of a hypothetical war between the United States and China over Taiwan....This test ...was based on 60,000 pages of American and Chinese military documents and open-source information."
 
The results:  The U.S. would have to do a FULL-SCALE attack - ground, air, navy - "but even after doing this, it would struggle to swiftly immobilize the Chinese military."
US Military Is Training AI to Give Orders and Handle State Secrets

So, would AI be better to have in control of our military 'assets' over drag-show queens and gender confused military personnel??  Hmmmm.
 
I can certainly see the desire to use AI for it's speed and ability to analyze a lot of data - but the part about 'hallucinations' is certainly concerning.  We don't want AI telling us a Russian fishing boat in the Bering Sea has been 'hallucinated' into a Russian Pacific Fleet invasion of Alaska!
 
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!
 
Maranatha!
