WASHINGTON (Sputnik) – The AUKUS trilateral defense partnership has successfully tested AI-enabled unmanned aerial vehicles in a real-time military environment for the first time, the UK government revealed on Friday.
"In a significant landmark for AUKUS, the 3 nations have trialled a futuristic integration of autonomy and artificial intelligence (AI) for the first time," the government said in a statement.
"Testing saw the deployment of a series of AI-enabled uncrewed aerial vehicles that allow a human operator to locate, disable and destroy targets on the ground."
The trial took place as part of the annual US-hosted multinational Project Convergence experimentation exercise. It was part of the AUKUS Resilient and Autonomous Artificial Intelligence Technologies trials, according to the statement.
