‘Resilience comes from designing for disconnection, not assuming more connectivity’: The future of…
As the US moves to integrate more AI systems into every arm of its military, the situations on the ground in the Middle East are raising some serious problems for maintaining the compute and connectivity needed to keep systems online.
Drones, sensors, AI-assisted targeting and decision-making all rely on these systems in one way or another, and the destruction of a single frontline AI data center can seriously damage an army’s capacity to function.
But these problems go beyond hardware. How does a drone adapt its mission parameters without being able to communicate? How can AI models continue inference without access to critical battlefield data? And what compromises must be made to prepare battlefield AI for these conditions?
Battlefield AI should continue functioning, even when comms go down or hardware is disabled
While the conflict circling the Strait of Hormuz may be a hugely expensive endeavour, Iran is providing valuable...
