How is AI transforming warfare? | FT #shorts
Financial TimesAI technology has changed how the war in Ukraine is fought. At the start of the conflict it could take 20 minutes to identify a target and launch a strike. Now that process can take less than two minutes, sometimes just seconds, explains the FT’s Alison Killing. Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine occurred nine months before OpenAI released ChatGPT, a pivotal moment in the AI revolution. The conflict has become a testing ground for the use of AI systems in kinetic warfare, with the lessons shaping not just the strategy of Ukraine and its western allies, but also the US in its war with Iran. ► Enjoying FT content?
