The AI Community On Kbin

Generative AI, a technology that can create human-like responses to user prompts, is being tested by the US military for the first time. The Pentagon is running an eight-week exercise with five large-language model (LLM) platforms, such as Scale AI’s Donovan, that are trained on huge amounts of internet data. The LLMs can help the military complete tasks faster, plan responses to crises, and generate new options that they have never considered before. However, the military also faces challenges and risks in using generative AI, such as bias, hacking, and data quality. The military is working with tech security companies to evaluate and mitigate these issues. The article is written by Jeff Stone and Margi Murphy, who can be reached at their email addresses.
