The use of artificial intelligence to identify targets could greatly alter modern warfare. Athena AI, an Australian company building AI drone systems, believes their AI is capable of outperforming human drone operators in identifying valid targets. Although the full results of the evaluation by the US military are classified, Stephen Bornstein, a representative from Athena AI, says their AI can take on a large portion of the work for human operators, who can become fatigued after hours of watching streaming video.
The AI targeting system is designed to be more accurate than human operators. Athena AI claims their AI has the ability to detect patterns and identify features that would be difficult for humans to find. This could lead to better accuracy in target identification and less collateral damage.
In addition to accuracy, the AI targeting system could increase the speed of target identification. AI’s ability to process vast amounts of data quickly could lead to faster target identification and better response times. This could give the US military an advantage over its enemies, since it could allow them to respond to threats more quickly, and with fewer unintended casualties and destruction.
