US Military Releases Its Artificial Intelligence Strategy

The American military wants to expand its use of artificial intelligence, or AI, for war. But it says the technology will be deployed1 in respect to the nation’s values.

The United States Defense2 Department released its first AI strategy this week.

The strategy calls for increasing the use of AI systems throughout the military, from decision-making to predicting problems in planes or ships. It urges the military to provide AI training to change “its culture, skills and approaches.” And it supports investment and partnership3 with education and industry in AI research.

The military report calls for the U.S. to move quickly before other countries narrow America’s technological4 lead. It says, “Other nations, particularly China and Russia, are making significant investments in AI for military purposes….” It says some of those applications raise questions connected to international norms and human rights.

The report makes little mention of autonomous5 weapons. But it lists an existing 2012 military guidance that requires humans to be in control “over the use of force.”

The U.S., Russia, Israel and South Korea are among the countries that have blocked a United Nations effort to ban autonomous weapons, also known as “killer robots.” Such systems could one day carry out war without human intervention6. The U.S. has argued that it is too early to try to restrict them.

The strategy released this week says the U.S. military will lead in honoring international and national law, supporting American values and strengthening U.S. partnerships7 with other nations.

The U.S. strategy report centers on more immediate8 applications. But some of those applications already have led to ethics9 debates within the U.S. Last year, Google withdrew from the military’s Project Maven after Google employees protested the work. That project aims to use AI to study video images which could be used to direct drone strikes in conflict areas.

Other companies have stepped in and the U.S. military is working with AI experts to establish ethical10 guidelines for its applications.

Todd Probert is with Raytheon, a company working with the U.S. military on Maven and other weapons programs. He said the technology is used to speed up the decision-making process.

“Everything we’ve seen is with a human decision-maker in the loop,” he said.
