UK navy will use AI-guided robot submarines to find explosive mines

New Scientist

The UK's Royal Navy wants to use artificial intelligence to guide a fleet of robot submarines, plotting the best course to find and destroy underwater mines. Mines are a cheap and effective form of naval warfare. Laid by aircraft, ships or submarines, they lurk in shallow water until a vessel passes nearby and triggers a magnetic sensor, setting off the explosive. Ensuring waterways are safe requires regular sweeps.
