AI Operations Management Tested by US Military Pilots
U.S. Air Force and Navy fighter pilots recently tested an artificial intelligence battlefield coordination management system. The exercise is one of the earliest full-scale U.S. military tests of AI in a battlefield scenario. RAFT, a defense contractor, put its AI battle management system to the test in what amounted to a learning exercise for both military pilots and the AI system. RAFT CEO Shubhi Mishra said in a statement made available to Ne…
Top (Robo) Gun: U.S. Fighter Pilots Take Directions from AI 'Air Battle Manager' in Tech Test
Air Force and Navy fighter pilots took directions from an AI system for the first time in a test that could drastically change combat tactics. The post Top (Robo) Gun: U.S. Fighter Pilots Take Directions from AI ‘Air Battle Manager’ in Tech Test appeared first on Breitbart.
US fighter pilots try taking directions from AI for the first time
US fighter pilots took directions from an AI system for the first time in a test that could drastically change combat tactics, Fox reported. Fighter pilots in action typically communicate with ground support who monitor radar and tell pilots where to fly. During the Air Force and Navy’s test this month, pilots instead consulted with Raft AI’s “air battle manager” technology to confirm their flight path was on track and to receive faster reports …
Pentagon conducts first test of AI air battle manager with U.S. pilots using Starsage system
Raft AI CEO Shubhi Mishra described the test as unprecedented. “We haven’t seen our enemies test any similar technology, so I think this is groundbreaking,” she told Fox News Digital. The system is designed to reduce pilot response times from minutes to seconds by providing one-to-one support, unlike human air battle managers who assist several pilots at once. “In the air battle manager’s case, it’s not a one-to-one ratio: one air battle man…
