The Pentagon uses artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies to analyze a wide range of information that comes from the war unleashed in Ukraine by Russia. This allows you to better understand Russian tactics and strategy, Maynard Holiday, director of defense research and engineering for the modernization of the US Department of Defense, told Defense one..

“We will certainly conduct a subsequent analysis of what we have seen in relation to Russian tactics,” he said.. All data is entered into a special database, which is used to train artificial intelligence, which improves its performance..

Gregory Allen, who leads the AI \u200b\u200bGovernance Project and is a Senior Fellow in the Strategic Technology Program at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, said programs to track specific objects in drone footage have improved significantly in recent years.. The same applies to photographs taken with the help of satellites..

“Artificial intelligence [and] machine learning is becoming an increasingly effective and increasingly pervasive factor in United States intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance operations,” he said.. According to him, they were extremely useful in keeping track of what is happening in Ukraine.. “The US Department of Defense and our allies are taking advantage of what has been created over the past five years”.

That is, the application of advanced artificial intelligence tools to publicly available images provides critical information that can help the Ukrainian military prevent Russian attacks..

According to experts, the data obtained now will make it possible to teach artificial intelligence to predict the behavior of troops in the future.. In particular, this applies to the military of Russia and China.. They also seek to understand how rapidly advancing technology can affect the behavior of the enemy..

Security experts also believe that the sanctions imposed on Russia, as well as the failure of the Russian army in Ukraine, may slow down the development of artificial intelligence in this country, but not completely stop it..

Recall that during a visit to Kyiv, US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken and Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin announced a new military assistance package for Ukraine and the appointment of a new US ambassador to Ukraine. Russia is so outraged by the fact that Americans support Ukraine that the Russian Foreign Ministry sent a note of protest about this.
