Title ProperEmerging dynamics of warfare — role of artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics and how india can exploit it
LanguageENG
AuthorChowdhury, Manish
Summary / Abstract (Note)Contemporary and future full-spectrum warfare would predictably be hybrid in nature, spanning into physical and conceptual dimensions — the former, a swift, intense and short-duration combat against an armed adversary and the latter, a sustained struggle for control and support of the domain of interest. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is fascinating as pursuit of machines to match human decision-making ability, albeit at a higher level of promptness and accuracy — both key components in tactical level of war fighting — hold vital promises for multi-dimensional warfare in fields of command and control, cyberspace, economic aggression, network centric operations, fail proof and predictive analysis of intelligence, deployment of autonomous unmanned platform, autonomous detection-acquisition-classification and engagement of targets, maintenance and upkeep of battle logistics and assets to name a few fields. This paper, while elaborating on conventional AI based force multipliers, also suggests futuristic unexplored application of AI to tilt the balance of power in own favour. The paper concludes with clear and non-utopian recommendation of future roadmaps, containing necessary change management and temporal action plan involving all stakeholders, to support India’s necessity to remain relevant in changing dynamics of warfare through development and deployment of AI and robotics.
