AI In The Defence Sector
AI is no longer just about machines thinking — it’s about nations strategizing smarter. Discover how India, China, and the U.S. are reimagining defence, surveillance, and warfare through artificial intelligence.
Chat GPT, a chatbot launched in November 2022 with abilities for human-like conversations and creativity, made everyone wonder about the power of Artificial Intelligence (AI).
History of AI in Defence
Research on AI began more than seventy years ago, but three recent enabling developments and their convergence made AI advance with several useful applications and deployments since 2010.
The enabling trinity is the availability of “big data” sources, advancements in machine learning technologies, and increased computer processing power.
Several applications with Narrow AI have been developed and are maturing to their full potential. Narrow AI algorithms address specific tasks or problems like image recognition, navigation, video analytics, etc. Most of the current AI applications are in the Narrow AI category. General AI systems will be capable of human-level intelligence across various tasks and may take some time to mature fully. AI was first used in military operations in 1991.
Role of AI in Defence
With the ability to perform under unpredictable circumstances, and the ability to perform tasks requiring human-like perception, cognition, and learning, AI systems are bound to transform National security and defence operations sooner than expected.
AI will empower surveillance and intelligence, information warfare, command and control systems,…
