US aims to stay ahead of China in using AI to fly fighter jets, navigate without GPS and more
The recent dogfight between two Air Force fighter jets in California showcased the advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) technology, with one jet being piloted by AI. This development reflects the military's focus on AI and its potential use in weapon systems, amid competition with China. From machine learning to AI-enabled autonomy, the military has been pioneering various AI applications. Projects like Vista, an AI-controlled F-16, and AI-based GPS alternatives demonstrate the breadth of ongoing efforts.

In U.S.-China AI contest, the race is on to deploy killer robots
The Australian Navy is investing in two different submarine technologies to counter the rising power of China. One approach involves building expensive nuclear-powered submarines, while the other focuses on developing cheap and fast unmanned submarines powered by artificial intelligence (AI), known as Ghost Sharks. The Ghost Sharks, costing less than 1% of the nuclear submarines, will be delivered by mid-2025. The use of AI and automation is revolutionizing military power and could potentially reshape the rivalry between China and the US.
