Race ‘militaryization’ artificial intelligence

At the AI ​​Action Summit organized by the French, the United States and the UK on the evening of 11.2 (Vietnam time) refused to sign a joint statement about this field, which set standards for AI development.

When the US “broke the fence”

Speaking at the Conference, US Vice President JD Vance emphasized that strict regulations to control AI can strangle the development of AI technology. At the same time, Mr. Vance also oppose the censorship of the content. “I’m not here to talk about AI safety, it’s the title of a few years ago. I am here to talk about AI,” said Vice President JD Vance.

The message from Mr. Vance has been predicted. In the analysis of Eurasia Group (USA) – the world’s leading political risk consulting and research company – sent to Adolescent Since mid -November, President Donald Trump took office, his predecessor’s execution orders Joe Biden to control who would be abolished.

Also at the above conference, the US Vice President also raised the question: “Some dictatorships have stolen and used AI to enhance the supervision as well as military capacity, collect foreign data and data. weaken national security of other countries. ” Thereby, the representative of the White House emphasized that Washington will prevent such efforts, and announce that the US will continue to lead who.

Risk of manifestation

Although Mr. Vance did not name the object that the US needs to stop, it is not difficult to realize it is China. The two countries are fiercely competing about AI even in the context of Washington, there are many barriers to prevent Beijing from approaching advanced technologies.

In such a context, even if he asserted who would not be “weapons”, the new race for the military involved would likely be hotter soon. This is because the US has recently warned that China is increasing the development of AI for military purposes.

At the end of 2024, Reuters quoted a number of sources confirming the leading research organizations China related to the country’s military are using a number of public technologies (ownership of Facebook) to develop models. Who uses in the military.

Also in 2024, the Brookings Research Institute (USA) published a report showing that the Chinese military sought to “raise the level” with advanced weapons systems through significant investment in robots and models. Attack the automation herd and other AI applications, the machine (ml). Many other US policy research and advisory agencies also published a series of reports that China is promoting AI application in weapons and combat.

Of course, Washington did not sit still! At a conference organized by the US Digital Intelligence Office Director (Ministry of Defense) in early 2024, the Pentagon officials emphasized the strengthening of AI in military activities. The Pentagon is expected to invest heavily on this issue in the giant US military apparatus.

By November 2024, sheet The Washington Post Reported Anthropic, a leading AI startup that raised billions of dollars, announced the semi -technology plan for US military and intelligence agencies. At the same time, Meta (owning Facebook) announced that it would provide open source, Llama system and some AI technologies for the US military. Similarly, Openai (possessing chatgpt) also confirmed the provision of the Pentagon.

In fact, over the past time, Israel has also applied to the combat. The use of AI serving military service sparks concerns about ethical factors and unexpected risks.
