New footage of an AI-powered tank showcases the terrifying and autonomous future of warfare by blowing up cars around a testing site.
. There’s even a group of tiny robots we plan to use to explore the Moon. But now, a video of a new AI-powered tank has surfaced. It showcases how the military plans to use these scary advancements in futuristic warfare.Milrem Robotics and Kongsberg Defense & Aerospace released the video in early June. As one of the leading technology and defense suppliers in the world, it has been working to make robots that soldiers can use in times of combat.
What’s most intriguing and terrifying about this particular tank is that it uses AI to navigate and move around obstacles. That means there isn’t a person behind it controlling where it goes. And, it’s unclear whether the turret attached to the top is controlled by humans or if Milrem hopes to make it autonomous, too.
We’ve slowly been working our way towards more autonomous robotics, which can bring a lot to the table. However, putting an AI-powered tank capable of blowing up cars by itself into the world does raise some moral conundrums.Even without those moral conundrums, though, the idea of a tank that controls itself with access to live ammunition is somewhat terrifying. Milrem says the system is designed to help infantry breach defensive enemy positions with minimal risk to soldiers.
Outside of warfare, robots continue to grow and improve, too. As I noted above, we’re already planning to send , and we’ve built robots that can perform surgeries completely autonomously. Still, AI-powered tanks highlight the terrifying future of warfare. A future that we’re sure to see coming more to fruition within the next decade.Josh Hawkins fell in love with writing and technology at a young age.
