Predictive AI

A machine learning-based system is helping the military predict events up to days in advance using a combination of artificial intelligence (AI), sensors, and cloud computing. The system integrates information from a global network of sources to identify trends and pinpoint possible threats. It’s also tied into real-world assets to enable more effective collaboration, assessment, and logistics coordination.

In a series of tests known as Global Information Dominance Experiments (GIDE), the system was able to sift through mountains of data in a matter of seconds, as opposed to the hours or days that would have been required for human analysts to complete the task. The ability to identify potential problems earlier could allow governments and other organizations to be more proactive in deterring conflicts and deploying defensive strategies.
