Researchers in China are crafting a smart air combat system that clarifies its decision-making process in battles, addressing the ‘black box’ problem that challenges both US and Chinese militaries in the AI arms race.
The smart air combat system can provide insights into its strategic reasoning, enhancing human understanding and collaboration in critical military operations, the However, whether Washington has overcome the same AI challenges in its new AI-enabled F-16 fighter jet remains uncertain, contrasting with Beijing’s claimed success. Nevertheless, the pioneering efforts of Chinese scientists are poised to redefine the landscape of aerial warfare.more common, and one key way to make decisions in these battles is through deep reinforcement learning.
First, it builds models to explain strategies and recognize intentions. Then, it calculates how important decisions are and the likelihood of intentions, making the decision-making process easier to understand. Finally, it adjusts the deep reinforcement learning algorithm based on these interpretations.
