We are entering the age of autonomous weapons and robots fighting robots! Witness the progressive blending of computer games and war fighting!
What will this mean going forward?
Will e.g. the civilian population and infrastructure again become more the target of military conflicts?
What will a victory be like? Robots or autonomous weapons do not surrender, they can only be destroyed!
"The United States Air Force announced last week the successful test flight of its first-ever unmanned artificial intelligence-piloted jet.
In a press release published on Thursday, the Air Force Research Laboratory stated that the three-hour test flight of the XQ-58A Valkyrie was a success. After two years of work, the flight occurred in late July at the Eglin Test and Training Complex in Florida. ..."
"To reduce risk to to the development and maturation of artificial intelligence capabilities, the Air Force Research Laboratory led a successful three-hour sortie, July 25, demonstrating the first flight of AFRL-developed, machine-learning trained, artificial intelligence algorithms on an XQ-58A Valkyrie.
Test units executed the flight in the Eglin Test and Training Complex. The flight builds upon four years of partnership that began with the Skyborg Vanguard and the Autonomous Aircraft Experimentation (AAx) programs."
