"The algorithm operated within the limits of the F-16—meaning it did not pull Gs beyond what a real-world aircraft could do. [But, the pilot said] the jet was not limited by the training and thinking that is engrained in an Air Force pilot." https://www.airforcemag.com/artificial-intelligence-easily-beats-human-fighter-pilot-in-darpa-trial/ …

Now imagine what happens when you don't design the platform around the pilot. This tech is coming, either from us or someone else.

Most of my family and friends ar AI geeks that work in military R&D. Their response to this article is there should never be a dog fight. We have the tech to shoot down planes over the horizon!

Oooh. I like the point and await rebuttals

Such an over the horizon shoot down will never take place, as we will have already achieved lethal strategic overmatch across multiple domains through full spectrum shaping operations across the conflict continuum in a fait accompli avoidance of the Thucydides trap. Duh.

Reading this caused me physical pain. If we could weaponize empty buzzwords, we really would achieve full-spectrum overmatch.
