Autonomous, AI-Enabled Tracking of Mobile Targets Demonstrated, As DoD Commits to Ethical AI Principles

摘要

The Pentagon recently demonstrated autonomous, artifical intelligence (AI)-enabled tracking of mobile targets--an effort simultaneous with other such AI drone projects and DoD's development of principles for ethical AI use, a top official said on June 22. Last month, a memorandum from Deputy Defense Secretary Kathleen Hicks re-affirmed DoD's commitment to such principles, and Barbara McQuiston, the acting Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering (R&E), said on June 22 that Hicks' memo "puts us on a strong foundation."
