Combat drone kills a person without direct order from an operator<\/strong><\/h2>\n
The combat drone carried out its first attack on a person without a direct order, reported<\/a> by the media, citing a UN report.<\/p>\n
The KARGU-2 attack quadcopter, operating autonomously, attacked a person during clashes between rival groups in the Libyan civil war in 2020. The drone autonomously targeted a Libyan army soldier and, without an operator\u2019s order, fired a fatal shot.<\/p>\n
Military experts confirmed that this is the first known instance of a drone autonomously deciding to neutralise a target.<\/p>\n
Human Rights Watch called for a ban on developing, producing and using autonomous weapons. The rights group argues it would spell the end of killer robots.<\/p>\n
Israel used AI in armed conflict in the Gaza Strip<\/strong><\/h2>\n
The Israeli army became the first in the world to apply artificial intelligence and supercomputers in real combat conditions. This refers to the recent conflict in the Gaza Strip.<\/p>\n
According to the military, with data from optical, electronic and human intelligence, AI developed recommendations that troops used to identify targets and strike them.<\/p>\n
Another ML algorithm used the information to warn troops in the field of possible enemy attacks.<\/p>\n
The military also said they relied on intelligence data to carry out targeted strikes, aiming to minimise civilian casualties.<\/p>\n
Sberbank presents algorithm for recognising armed people<\/strong><\/h2>\n
The Sberbank laboratory created AI to identify armed individuals on video in real time.<\/p>\n
Developers said the neural network learned not only to identify a pistol in a person\u2019s hand but also to distinguish it from props. They say the technology will enhance safety in various institutions.<\/p>\n
\n
\u201cIf the algorithm were applied, say, in a school, we could automatically receive a signal without phone calls that there is a risk of a terrorist attack,\u201d the company said.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
In Russian schools, AI will monitor children<\/strong><\/h2>\n
In one of the Moscow region schools, the AI system will be tested for monitoring the safety of children and the condition of infrastructure.<\/p>\n
AI-enabled cameras will learn to recognise atypical behaviour, such as running in corridors or riding along railings. In such cases the system will notify responsible staff so they can take the necessary measures.<\/p>\n
According to the developers, all technologies used were Russian. They also emphasised that the system does not make decisions. It is designed to inform responsible personnel about potential incidents.<\/p>\n
NVIDIA will open subscription access to the supercomputer<\/strong><\/h2>\n
