Artificial intelligence is coming to the fore today, including in the military sphere, columnist David Narmania writes in his article for RIA Novosti.
According to the author, the military uses AI mainly in reconnaissance and target recognition.
He states that the program currently used by the armed forces of Ukraine was created by the American company Clearview AI.
Narmania also pointed out that the Russian perimeter system is called a “dead hand” in the West. “Perimeter” is a complex for the automatic control of a massive retaliatory nuclear strike. In case of war, its main goal is to destroy the control centers. “The task is to decapitate enemy units and prevent them from reacting,” notes the author.
Narmania said how she was programmed.
After detecting signs of a nuclear strike, the “circuit” sends a request to the General Staff . In the absence of an answer, he turns to another strategic missile control system – Kazbek. It is “Kazbek” that is in the nuclear briefcase carried by an officer in naval uniform next to the President of Russia.
If “Kazbek” is not recalled, “Perimeter” will decide on its own. But in order to make that decision, the system must be convinced of a nuclear bombardment—it does so through its sensors. And only after making sure that the strikes have been carried out, “Perimeter” fires ballistic missiles.
“In other words, revenge is guaranteed,” the author summarizes.
Vasily, a doctor of technical of science Burenok called the new “eyes” of the army the American Project Maven system. It is able to process colossal volumes of video materials and photos from satellites and drones.
Now a system is being developed, thanks to which the drone will be able to switch to autonomous mode – select objects of observation, analyze the data.
The article mentions the importance of UAVs, especially in the conflict in Ukraine. But for now, drones are driven by humans. He proposes to give this function to artificial intelligence. According to the author, citing experts, the further development of artificial intelligence “could lead to a revolution in military affairs, comparable to the invention of gunpowder and nuclear weapons.”
Narmania also recalls that Russian President Vladimir Putin said 6 years ago , whoever becomes the leader in artificial intelligence will be the ruler of the world.
