US military needs AI vehicles, weapon systems to be 'superior' global force: experts

The House Armed Services Committee holds a hearing on the Department of Defense using artificial intelligence. Retired Army Gen. Mark Milley believes that artificial intelligence will be a critical component of keeping the U.S. military one step ahead of potential adversaries. "Our military is going to have to change if we are going to continue to be superior to every other military on Earth," Milley, the former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said during an interview with "60 Minutes" this week. According to Milley, future wars will look drastically different with the seemingly rapid development of AI technology, something the U.S. will have to be prepared for and adopt if they want to win future wars.
