Combat AI beats the Air Force's top tactical experts

And it only requires the processing power of a Raspberry Pi.

A new artificial intelligence flight combat system dubbed ALPHA has taken on one of the Air Force's top tactical experts and won. Retired USAF Colonel Gene Lee -- an experienced combat instructor with "considerable fighter aircraft expertise" -- was repeatedly shot down during engagements with ALPHA in a high-fidelity air combat simulation. Lee called his computerized opponent "the most aggressive, responsive, dynamic and credible AI I've seen to date."
The details of Col. Lee's showdown were published in University of Cincinnati Magazine and the ALPHA AI itself was developed by UC offshoot Psibernetix, Inc. as an autonomous wingman to a human pilot. After ALPHA shot down a range of other AI opponents, Col. Lee jumped into the simulator against a "mature" version of the ALPHA code last October. Lee, who has trained thousands of Air Force pilots and has been taking on AI opponents since the early 80s, was unable to score a single kill against ALPHA on multiple tries. In fact, he was shot down every time.
"I was surprised at how aware and reactive it was," Lee told UC Magazine. "It seemed to be aware of my intentions and reacting instantly to my changes in flight and my missile deployment. It knew how to defeat the shot I was taking. It moved instantly between defensive and offensive actions as needed."

It's happening. They tried to warn us but we wouldn't listen.

Further proof the AF needs to move to unmanned.

I hope people understand that in about 15 years...AI will be able to perform all the mundane task of the American worker. Not to mention perform surgery better and better diagnosis patients. shite...they have huge automaton articulated machine pods that will single handedly build houses top to bottom like a 3d printer. No Mexicans needed.
What do logical people think is going to happen when most of us are not needed Anymore. More precisely...we were always a means to an end.

Maybe it was all a ruse to make the point without saying it. Everything has a purpose. There doesn't have to be a reason.

How will higher ups continue to make money if nobody has any money to spend since everyone has been replaced by robots?
