Even so, this gives scope to explore operational concepts that might stimulate thinking about the future and preparing for it. To make the discussion manageable, it’s tightly constrained to air defense and avoids broadening into joint and combined operations. Moreover, the contemporary AI’s general-purpose nature means it’s initial employment will be within existing operational level constructs, not wholly new ones. 1 With much of the underlying narrow AI technology already developed in the commercial sector, this is less of a speculative exercise than might be assumed. In a new Joint Studies Paper published by the Australian Defence College, I explore sea, land and air operational concepts appropriate to fighting near-to-medium term future AI-enabled wars. There may be a considerable first-mover advantage to the country that first understands AI adequately enough to change its existing human-centered force structures and embrace AI warfighting. While developed by and for the commercial sector, AI’s apparent potential for military use is now pushing armed forces globally to begin experimenting with embryonic AI-enabled defense systems. It is a time of rapid disruptive technological change and none more so than in the field of artificial intelligence (AI).
