How Artificial Intelligence Is Shaping the IDF
(JNS.org) Yaakov Lappin - Artificial Intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing the ways in which Israel defends itself, said Lt.-Col. Nurit Cohen Inger, a senior IDF officer overseeing the introduction of this technology. AI provides the IDF the ability to accurately predict what enemies will do, based on an analysis of what they've done and are currently doing. AI systems analyze real-time video feeds, and then assist the IDF in making decisions accordingly. The same kind of technology is helping the IDF deal with the avalanche of audio and text-based intelligence they receive. In the IDF, soldiers and platforms are broadcasting vast amounts of data on their own activities to the military's shared data network. The IDF is using artificial intelligence to take stock of what its units are doing, enabling officials to make significantly more effective battlefield decisions.
