Version 0.15 (2024-04-12 11:54:06.190000)

updates: The US and China are preparing for a new kind of warfare involving squadrons of air and sea drones equipped with AI. The spread of swarm technology could lead to more instability and conflict globally. The US and China could set an example by putting limits on military uses of drone swarms, but their intense competition and tensions make cooperation unlikely. The Pentagon has conducted a study where a single operator supervised a swarm of over 100 cheap air and land drones. China's military claimed that dozens of aerial drones 'self-healed' after jamming cut their communications. The US and China are not likely to build trust or reduce the risk of conflict through their competition. There is a risk that China could offer swarm technology to US foes or repressive countries, or it could be stolen. The US-China talks on AI safety will address the military use of drone swarms. Military analysts, drone makers, and AI researchers expect fully capable combat-ready swarms to be fielded in about five years. The US has an edge in software, while China has an edge in hardware. The logistics of deploying air and sea drones over vast expanses of the western Pacific for a potential war over Taiwan present a challenge. The US and China are at rough parity in terms of drone swarm capabilities. The bigger question for each country is how to use a drone swarm effectively. [c02ff058]

updates: The article discusses the use of drone technology and artificial intelligence (AI) in the war in Ukraine. The Ukrainian army has been using drones equipped with AI to identify targets and navigate autonomously. The Russians initially struggled to adapt to this new threat but eventually developed powerful jamming stations to sever communication between the drones and their remote pilots. In response, Ukraine developed drones with AI that can operate independently if communication is lost. These drones have been used in a recent drone strike against Russia. The article suggests that the development of lethal autonomous robots is already underway, with large sums of money being allocated for their development. The author argues that enterprise AI, designed to operate complex systems, will play a crucial role in managing these killer robots. The article concludes by urging readers to consider the financial implications of this development and to position themselves accordingly.
