IDF Now Identifies "as Many Targets in a Month as It Did in a Year"
(JNS) Yaakov Lappin - The Israel Defense Forces Intelligence Directorate is using artificial intelligence technology to generate the same number of targets in a month that it once took a year to produce, IDF Chief of Staff Lt.-Gen. Aviv Kochavi revealed on Sunday. The Military Intelligence Targets Center, established in 2019, "takes all of our existing advanced sensors and sources... and connected these abilities to advanced artificial intelligence. The result is that the number of [potential enemy] targets we identified per year, we now produce in a month or two, depending on the arena. The significance of this for strategy is enormous." In Syria, such intelligence has been used to severely disrupt Iranian plans to build a war machine against Israel. "80% of the Iranian smuggling routes to Syria via sea, land and air have been closed," Kochavi said.
