This book was released on 1983 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study offers commanders and managers an operational perspective of the steadily evolving technology of artificial intelligence (AI). This primer discusses AI within the context of its probable future application to command, control, communications, and intelligence (C3I). The technological advances in command, control, and intelligence collection and communications capabilities the concurrent inundation of data into command facilities, and the limited number of experienced personnel available to analyze the material are the catalysts to investigate the current as well as future assistance that may be available through AI systems. And as it will be pointed out, the human contribution to this environment is key to the success of AI systems. In order for the reader to better understand the differences between current conventional computer services and those that capitalize on AI techniques, a little background as well as some fundamental building blocks of this newly emerging art are introduced.

Book excerpt: "The introduction of advanced technologies into the military, which is known as the "revolution in military affairs," is producing an opportunity for significant changes in the American military's paradigm for command and control. The future battlespace will require commanders to operate more efficiently and at a higher operations tempo, so that commanders will be able to use the advantages of dominant battlespace awareness to enhance what is known as "command-by-intent." But the more likely outcome is a return tocommand-by-direction. A potential consequence of this change is that significant command functions will be made by machines that act, not as an assistant, but as the decision maker and executor -- which is known as the machine commander. However, the current U.S. military doctrine is inconsistent about the admissibility of such an entity, even though technological developments are on the threshold of delivering the components for constructing the first-generation machine commander. Furthermore, the same infrastructure that assists the traditional human commander creates a framework for using a machine commander. Furthermore, the same infrastructure that assists the tradiitional human commander creates a framework for using a machine commander. While resistance to this technology is expected, this is the proper time to examine the implications of a machine commander for military operations in the future."--Abstract

Download or read book Arms and Artificial Intelligence written by Stockholm International Peace Research Institute and published by Stockholm International Peace Research Institute. This book was released on 1987 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The impact of information technology in the field of military decision making is superficially less visible than that of a number of other weapon developments, though its importance has grown steadily since the beginning of the 1980s. Owing to its potential role in modern weapon systems and the prospect of its inclusion as an essential ingredient in many military projects such as the Strategic Defence Initiative, it has become the focus of special interest and efforts. This book is the first attempt to present a broad overview of the prospects for information technology in general, and machine intelligence in particular, in the context of international security. The dangers and promises of weapon and arms control applications of computers and artificial intelligence to decision-making processes are analysed in a technical, strategic, and political perspective by experts from six different countries. In an introductory chapter, Allan Din presents a generic overview of artificial intelligence and its prospects. Thirteen contributors then discuss the conceptual and technical framework of artificial intelligence, analyse implications for weapon systems and strategy, and discuss possible applications to arms control verification and modelling.

Download or read book Artificial intelligence and the future of warfare written by James Johnson and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2021-09-14 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume offers an innovative and counter-intuitive study of how and why artificial intelligence-infused weapon systems will affect the strategic stability between nuclear-armed states. Johnson demystifies the hype surrounding artificial intelligence (AI) in the context of nuclear weapons and, more broadly, future warfare. The book highlights the potential, multifaceted intersections of this and other disruptive technology – robotics and autonomy, cyber, drone swarming, big data analytics, and quantum communications – with nuclear stability. Anticipating and preparing for the consequences of the AI-empowered weapon systems are fast becoming a critical task for national security and statecraft. Johnson considers the impact of these trends on deterrence, military escalation, and strategic stability between nuclear-armed states – especially China and the United States. The book draws on a wealth of political and cognitive science, strategic studies, and technical analysis to shed light on the coalescence of developments in AI and other disruptive emerging technologies. Artificial intelligence and the future of warfare sketches a clear picture of the potential impact of AI on the digitized battlefield and broadens our understanding of critical questions for international affairs. AI will profoundly change how wars are fought, and how decision-makers think about nuclear deterrence, escalation management, and strategic stability – but not for the reasons you might think.
Download or read book Artificial Intelligence and the Future of Defense written by Stephan De Spiegeleire and published by The Hague Centre for Strategic Studies. This book was released on 2017-05-17 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Artificial intelligence (AI) is on everybody’s minds these days. Most of the world’s leading companies are making massive investments in it. Governments are scrambling to catch up. Every single one of us who uses Google Search or any of the new digital assistants on our smartphones has witnessed first-hand how quickly these developments now go. Many analysts foresee truly disruptive changes in education, employment, health, knowledge generation, mobility, etc. But what will AI mean for defense and security? In a new study HCSS offers a unique perspective on this question. Most studies to date quickly jump from AI to autonomous (mostly weapon) systems. They anticipate future armed forces that mostly resemble today’s armed forces, engaging in fairly similar types of activities with a still primarily industrial-kinetic capability bundle that would increasingly be AI-augmented. The authors of this study argue that AI may have a far more transformational impact on defense and security whereby new incarnations of ‘armed force’ start doing different things in novel ways. The report sketches a much broader option space within which defense and security organizations (DSOs) may wish to invest in successive generations of AI technologies. It suggests that some of the most promising investment opportunities to start generating the sustainable security effects that our polities, societies and economies expect may lie in in the realms of prevention and resilience. Also in those areas any large-scale application of AI will have to result from a preliminary open-minded (on all sides) public debate on its legal, ethical and privacy implications. The authors submit, however, that such a debate would be more fruitful than the current heated discussions about ‘killer drones’ or robots. Finally, the study suggests that the advent of artificial super-intelligence (i.e. AI that is superior across the board to human intelligence), which many experts now put firmly within the longer-term planning horizons of our DSOs, presents us with unprecedented risks but also opportunities that we have to start to explore. The report contains an overview of the role that ‘intelligence’ - the computational part of the ability to achieve goals in the world - has played in defense and security throughout human history; a primer on AI (what it is, where it comes from and where it stands today - in both civilian and military contexts); a discussion of the broad option space for DSOs it opens up; 12 illustrative use cases across that option space; and a set of recommendations for - especially - small- and medium sized defense and security organizations.
Download or read book Applications of Artificial Intelligence to the Strategic Defense Initiative s Battle Management Command and Control Objective written by Lorraine M. Gozzo and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis determined the applicability of various artificial intelligence techniques to the Battle management/Command, control and communications (BM/C3) objective of the Strategic Defense Initiative. This analysis was accomplished by an extensive literature review followed by personal interviews with members of various organizations within the Department of Defense (DOD). Interviews were limited to people in the DOD because of their anticipated willingness to provide information versus non-DOD people. The results obtained are an accumulation of opinions and perceptions and are not to be taken as concrete facts. Results indicated that the artificial intelligence techniques that would be most beneficial to the Battle Management/Command, control and communications issue are expert systems, knowledge-based systems, automatic programming and natural language processing. Areas of BM/C3 where these techniques were considered to be of most benefit include event classification and discrimination, resource allocation, sensor allocation, real-time response capability, data processing, surveillance and intelligence, electronic equipment maintenance, software generation and increased testability of BM/C3 systems. Keywords: Man machine systems; and Strategic analysis. (Author).

Download or read book Command Control Communications Computers and Intelligence C4I in Revolution written by and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Command Control, Communications, Computers and Intelligence (C4I) community has been in the midst of a revolution since the onset of DESERT SHIELD/DESERT STORM. Using multimedia real-time, fully integrated command and control, this revolution seeks to exploit the adversary's command and control and operate within their decision cycle. This race has no limits in leveraging commercial technologies and services, international commercial data protocol standards and the latest innovations in information transfer technology. It also appears to have no pause for reassessment and course correction of the Strategy along the way. The focus is on the opportunities, which do abound, with a lack luster appreciation for the inherent risks associated with being on the cutting edge of technology. The Warfighter needs to stay engaged to ensure the retains the capability to command and control his forces during the transitional phase of this C I revolution and into the future. Pushing the technological envelope to provide a force multiplier to compensate for reductions in personnel, funding, weapons and information infrastructure must be balanced with the continued operation of the present (legacy) communications systems to provide a safety net for deployed forces.
Download or read book Exploring the Feasibility and Utility of Machine Learning assisted Command and Control written by Matthew Walsh and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report concerns the potential for artificial intelligence (AI) systems to assist in Air Force command and control (C2) from a technical perspective. The authors present an analytical framework for assessing the suitability of a given AI system for a given C2 problem. The purpose of the framework is to identify AI systems that address the distinct needs of different C2 problems and to identify the technical gaps that remain. Although the authors focus on C2, the analytical framework applies to other warfighting functions and services as well. The goal of C2 is to enable what is operationally possible by planning, synchronizing, and integrating forces in time and purpose. The authors first present a taxonomy of problem characteristics and apply them to numerous games and C2 processes. Recent commercial applications of AI systems underscore that AI offers real-world value and can function successfully as components of larger human-machine teams. The authors outline a taxonomy of solution capabilities and apply them to numerous AI systems. While primarily focusing on determining alignment between AI systems and C2 processes, the report's analysis of C2 processes is also informative with respect to pervasive technological capabilities that will be required of Department of Defense (DoD) AI systems. Finally, the authors develop metrics-based on measures of performance, effectiveness, and suitability-that can be used to evaluate AI systems, once implemented, and to demonstrate and socialize their utility.

Book excerpt: The purpose of this research was to assess the feasibility of developing a decision aiding support system, through human factors engineering and decision-making analysis, to support one of the Army Corps battlefield tasks -- mobility, countermobility, and survivability as performed by combat engineers. The research effort included reviews of the literature in the areas of user computer interface design and technologies, and decision aiding technologies with respect to software techniques. Literature reviews were augmented by in depth analysis of the combat engineer's decision making activities. Combat engineers were interviewed. Based on these systematic analysis steps, a solution was found which applied cognitive science technologies to the traditional arts of decision analysis, emphasizing the use of interactive intelligence as a modality to improve combat engineer's decision making with respect to developing plans for engineering operations. A design of the Combat Engineer decision aiding system (CETOOLS) to provide decision aiding support for combat engineer planning activities was developed. The proposed CETOOLS design was judged feasible with a low level of risk. Keywords: Artificial intelligence, Management information systems, Computer programs, Human factors engineering, Decision support systems, Army corps of engineers.
