MS--Open AI's ~parent company--already has massive US military contracts. This is the biz model. This news is also one more alarm re. the current AI paradigm, its reliance on concentrated corp power, & the undemocratic decision making power this gives these (primarily) US-based corps. https://theintercept.com/2024/01/12/open-ai-military-ban-chatgpt/ 7 comments
 @Mer__edith  @Mer__edith If all major military powers use AI to a similar extent, would it revert warfare back to primitive stage because nothing is reliable without naked eye confirmation? Either that, or kill everyone and nuke everything. @fool Well, all major military powers don't have access to AI on the same terms, given that the corporations able to produce AI at scale are largely based in the US, followed by China. I can't answer the following questions, because I'm not sure I follow. @Mer__edith Forget about the other questions - it was based on the assumption that the conflicting military powers both have access to deploy AI at similar scale, the obfuscation and analysis involved would even out. And they would've to either act on every piece of information, or rely heavily on manual labour as if cyberwarfare has been rendered useless @Mer__edith |

...for anyone preparing to step to this post with arguments re. AI's potential efficiencies/precision leading to harm reduction in war, no. That's an unevidenced hope.
Where we do have insight (which is scarce, given the pernicious intersection of trade secrecy and classification), it points to AI enabling "Jevon's paradox, but for death."
