CSET’s Emelia Probasco shared her expert insights in a newsletter published by Politico. The newsletter highlights China’s push to integrate artificial intelligence into its military through military-civil fusion, leveraging commercial tech and research institutions to accelerate battlefield planning, cyber operations, and intelligence analysis.
What we are seeing is a lot of experimentation. We are reading request-for-proposal language that is explicitly requesting machine learning, computer vision, large language models, all different sorts of AI techniques in order to do everything from accelerate and make communications more efficient when you get data transferred from all around the battlefield to doing cyber defense, to hoovering up a bunch of news reports to try and understand what’s important in a country.CSET Senior Fellow, Emelia Probasco
