Pentagon: Artificial intelligence will fight terrorists in Syria
And on the eve of the American television channel CNN published material on the use of US elements of artificial intelligence to combat ISIS *. We are talking about the development of "Maven", which allows you to conduct activities in the military sphere, directed against the activity of terrorists.
It is reported that the artificial intelligence system consists in the robotic analysis of video content captured by unmanned aerial vehicles. Today, as noted, terabytes of video are received by headquarters, but it is not possible to analyze all the footage "in manual" mode. To date, as stated in the material, 99% of all US UAV video has not been studied. According to the Pentagon, in this case, the artificial intelligence of the Maven program will come to the rescue. He will "watch" the video from drones, then identify points of terrorist activity and send commands to destroy targets.
At the same time, it is not reported whether incoming commands will eventually be filtered by a person, or percussion Drones will strike solely based on the data of the program used? If everything is designed for the second option, then are the Pentagon ready to guarantee that the program did not make a mistake, and that the blow was delivered specifically to the terrorists?
