PETER LAYTON<\/a>\u00a0|<\/p>\n

Technological change is relentless.\u00a0Fifth generation warfare<\/a>\u00a0is only just emerging but already commercial technology developments are pushing us in new directions. Artificial intelligence (AI) has arrived as a new disruptive force although its impact and its usefulness to warfighting is unclear. To help address that question, I recently wrote\u00a0a paper for the Royal Australian Air Force<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Importantly, this paper tries to stay practically focused on the application of emerging intelligent machine technologies to warfighting. Fictional books and movies remain fascinated by notions of robot soldiers, often fighting some final battle against the human race. Such technologies though remain distant and the form in which they may emerge \u2013 if at all \u2013 is very uncertain. With warfighting being a practical profession, this paper accordingly sticks to more mundane non-fiction matters in thinking about the here-and-now.<\/p>\n

However, while\u00a0Terminator<\/em>\u00a0cyborgs and\u00a0Cyberdyne\u2019s Skynet<\/em>\u00a0are imaginary, today\u2019s smart-phone and internet search engines already use intelligent machine technologies. The Chinese Government\u2019s Skynet intelligent surveillance system is operational and Project Maven will deliver its AI-powered analysis system to the USAF later this year. Intelligent machines have arrived. Algorithmic warfare is very real.<\/p>\n

The paper\u2019s \u2018Algorithmic Warfare\u2019 title derives from\u00a0Project Maven<\/a>\u00a0but it is much broader than that project or indeed AI itself. When we use AI, we are generally actually thinking of an amalgam of various technologies including \u2018big data\u2019 and \u2018the cloud\u2019 that when integrated give us machines with particular capabilities. These technologies are emerging from the commercial world and proliferating widely, as the AI in your smart phone will tell you if asked. Given this, the key differentiator in determining combat performance between future intelligent machines used for warfighting tasks appears likely to be the algorithms each incorporates and how it has been trained.<\/p>\n
