The use of AI tools in the attacks on Iran is collapsing the time required for military decision-making, raising fears that human oversight is being sidelined. The US military reportedly used Anthropic’s Claude AI model to shorten the 'kill chain' during almost 900 strikes on Iranian targets, including one that killed Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
A new model developed by researchers at MIT and the University of Washington predicts human goals or actions more accurately than previous models. The latent inference budget model identifies patterns in human or machine decision-making and uses this information to forecast behavior.
