Artificial intelligence is the next step in a brutal automatized battlefield.



The thing in artificial intelligence-controlled drones is that they are effective and cheap. Their operators don't require long and effective training. Because those people are sitting on their chairs in offices.  

Under the control of their military police, they are always under control. The thing is that those people are safe for their commanders. The person who is in the field tells stories about the war. The person who operates remotely will not be so proud of their actions. And they cannot even connect themselves to the war zone. 

When a person operates remotely. That thing means that there are no own losses. This thing supports the position of the military commanders. And the unsportsmanlike way to kill people helps the henchmen keep their mouths shut about those things that they see. Minimizing own losses and maximizing enemy losses is the thing in the war. 

When some aircraft drops a bomb from 10 000 meters those people would not have a chance at all to harm that aircraft. When some warship shoots cruise missiles from 1000 kilometers there is no way to harm that ship. And the same philosophy is in the use of killer drones. 

They are effective weapons. And that's enough. The most brutal weapons are horrifying but they are effective. 

In the same way, some nations are getting nuclear weapons in their stockpile. The same countries are worried about the proliferation of nuclear weapons. Own the biggest nuclear stockpiles in the world. 

Their technology is advancing faster than we think. Some military specialists are saying that robot aircraft and drones are not replacing human pilots in 20-30 years. 

The fact is that autonomous operating killer robots were not even existed 20-30 years ago. The advantage of machine learning and artificial intelligence is so fast that nobody can predict the next step of those systems. 

If we think that the use of killer drones. Is like playing computer games that thing might be true. But things like shooting cruise- or ballistic missiles to target from another side of the Earth is the same way unsportsmanlike.

When we think about the philosophy of war. The ancient Spartans were not very sportsmanlike either. If some of them will face the enemy that will win that Spartan. The other Spartan will push his pike to the back of that person. So the war is not the game. The philosophy of war is to minimize own and maximize the opponent's losses. 

And that's why remote-controlled or independently operating killing machines are very good tools. The purpose of military forces is to kill people who are determined as an enemy. The military force's mission is not being popular.  Or its mission is not being sportsmanlike. 

The thing is that quantum computers were possible about five years ago and their advancement is so fast that the systems are turning old-fashion in months. The next-generation artificial intelligence, along with machine intelligence and network-based topology means that AI can win humans faster than we think. The self-developing AI is coming. 

The self-learning system means that when drones are making their operations. The system collects data about their success. And the system will store the most successful performance in its memory. 

The system connects data from multiple sources. And then it can select the most suitable profile for the operation. Data that the system uses is like a puzzle. The system analyzes collected data that is captured by different types of sensors. Then the AI selects the most suitable puzzles for making the best possible operation. 

The problem with those kinds of systems is that their advancement cannot predict. The programming languages are free to learn. And anyone can make those codes. If somebody would say 20 years ago that independently operating drone swarms are the potential actors on the battlefield that person would laugh away. 

But the advancement of computers and neural networks is very fast. The thing is that nobody even knows where the limits of those highly independent systems are. The fact is that somebody once said that the things like loitering munitions are only cruise missiles that are making more curves than normal missiles.

The hydrogen-burning supernovas are interesting models.

"Researchers discovered a significant magnesium anomaly in a meteorite’s dust particle, challenging current astrophysical models and suggesting new insights into hydrogen-burning supernovas. (Artist’s concept.)Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, Rare Dust Particle From Ancient Extraterrestrial Meteorite Challenges Astrophysical Models) If the star is too heavy when its fusion reaction starts, it can detonate just at that moment, when its fusion starts. If the collapsing nebula is heavy enough, it can form a black hole straight from the nebula. But if the nebula's gravity is too heavy to  form  the blue giant or too  small  it can collapse  straight  into a black hole . If  the forming star is a little bit larger than the blue supergiants. It can explode immediately when the fusion starts.    The theory of hydrogen-burning supernovas consists  model  of the giant stars that explode immediately after their fusion starts. When the...

The ancient galaxy mirrors the Milky Way.

"This image shows the galaxy REBELS-25 as seen by the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), overlaid on an infrared image of other stars and galaxies. The infrared image was taken by ESO’s Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy (VISTA). In a recent study, researchers found evidence that REBELS-25 is a strongly rotating disc galaxy existing only 700 million years after the Big Bang. This makes it the most distant and earliest known Milky Way-like galaxy found to date. Credit: ALMA (ESO/NAOJ/NRAO)/L. Rowland et al./ESO/J. Dunlop et al. Ack.: CASU, CALET" (ScitechDaily, Astronomers Baffled by Ancient Galaxy That Mirrors Modern Milky Way) Researchers found the youngest Milky Way-type galaxy. The distance to the galaxy is enormous. And the light that comes from that galaxy named REBELS-25 comes from the Universe that is only 700 million years old. The distance to that galaxy is enormous about 236 billion light years. And that means it's a very dista...

Transcendence, or the ability to transcendent thinking may grow in teen's brains.

   "New research has discovered that transcendent thinking, which involves analyzing the broader implications of situations, can foster brain growth in adolescents. This form of thinking enhances brain network coordination, impacting developmental milestones and future life satisfaction. The study emphasizes the need for education that encourages deep, reflective thought, underscoring the critical role of adolescents in their own brain development". (ScitechDaily, Scientists Discover That “Transcendent” Thinking May Grow Teens’ Brains) "Scientists at  USC Rossier School of Education’s Center for Affective Neuroscience, Development, Learning and Education (CANDLE) have discovered that adolescents who grapple with the bigger meaning of social situations experience greater brain growth, which predicts stronger identity development and life satisfaction years later". (ScitechDaily, Scientists Discover That “Transcendent” Thinking May Grow Teens’ Brains) The transcendenc...
