So now they can use them for offensive actions.
Not Ukraine related but our AI military overlords are one step closer to Skynet.
Sounds like a badly setup model
People need to dumb down their own thinking when creating AI, AI is not as smart as humans yet, they are still just doing what you told them to do. So if you give a robot a missile launcher and tell its mission is to kill enemies and that's it, then it will carry the it its mission in full, it's does not feel emotion or think about consequences because you never told it to think about those things, don't assume AI is smarter than it is
It would be interesting to know what exactly Russia are targeting in these daily strikes
Largely seems to be a bit of everything - infrastructure like transport and power, military including training and barracks as well as command, etc. a few have been aimed at bridges as well as at times deliberate targeting of hospitals and residential areas. Despite the propaganda probably 60% of instances of impacts on civilian targets were either missing their intended target, targetted at military/government targets located in residential areas or based on old information of military sites which have long since stopped existing i.e. turned into blocks of flats instead - that isn't to say they've not intentionally targetted civilians as well.
I'm not so forgiving. They have satellites and people on the ground. They know what they are targetting IMO.
The Russian military satellite situation is like a lot of their military; though they can probably get access to Western commercial imagery as well Russia's military satellites capabilities for optical imaging are actually relatively limited - in fact it is possible they are down to one (out of the 2 they have) high resolution satellite by modern standards and that is still half the resolution of the latest Maxar, etc. ones let alone the US military ones. Most of the Russian commercial ones are more limited resolution still and several of those are out of action, it is possible Gazprom has 1-2 optical imagery ones they might be able to use.
They have people on the ground but Ukraine has been working hard to erode those capabilities.
Encouraged by a statement from the Russian embassy in Mexico, social media accounts made the unsubstantiated claim that weapons Washington supplies to Kyiv are being diverted to cartels. This explosive assertion linked two of the biggest issues driving the U.S. populist right: the Russo-Ukrainian War and the southern border.
The video first circulated on social media before Milenio, one of Mexico’s most prominent TV networks, picked it up. Milenio has done stellar work on the drug war and suffered threats and attacks but it made a key mistake. It identified the weapon as a Javelin, stressing how these are used in Ukraine.
The FGM-148 Javelin is an advanced rocket launcher worth about $176,000 a piece that is almost unseen in Latin America but Ukrainians have been using them to take out Russian tanks.
In reality, the weapon looks like an AT4, an older and much cheaper anti-material weapon that is used by military forces around the world including several South American armies. Michael Burgoyne, a retired U.S. colonel who served as Army Attache in Mexico, as well as deploying in Iraq and Afghanistan, explained to me the limits of the AT4.
“It’s not super capable so it’s good for light armor,” he said. “It’s direct attack, it’s not like a Javelin which does top attack, that has been so effective in Ukraine.”
The Russian embassy followed the TV report by tweeting out a statement. It identified the weapon as an AT4 and raised the question of whether it had been diverted from Ukraine.
“While the West continues supplying arms without thinking to the Kyiv regime and making a lot of money with this business, we are probably seeing the consequences in Mexico.”
The latest Russian talking point is 'US weapons for Ukraine ending up in Mexican cartel hands.' It's pure propaganda.
