Artificial Intelligence
Noah Sylvia, a researcher at the defence and security think tank Royal United Services Institute (RUSI), said the central shift in AI-enabled targeting is not machines replacing human decision-making, but the acceleration of the processes around it. Speaking with The Beiruter, he noted that the time between intelligence gathering and strike tasking has decreased by “orders of magnitude” compared to a decade ago. The implications extend beyond speed, altering how decisions are made and how risk is distributed across conflict zones.
