🔴Monday May 24th 2021 🔵2021年5月24日星期一 🔱Espresso - Today’s agenda 每日濃縮 - 今日頭條 🚀🚀🚀Drone wars: autonomous weapons 自動化武器:無人機大戰 Today military brass from around the world will meet, virtually, for the Future Artillery conference, an annual event looking at how munitions systems are evolving. There is increasing interest in the use of artificial intelligence in offensive weapons. Last year, in its war with Armenia, Azerbaijan used Israeli-made loitering munitions—in effect, drones with in-built explosives—capable of choosing their own targets. Ziyan, a Chinese company, boasts a gun-toting helicopter drone that “autonomously performs…complex combat missions” including “targeted precision strikes”. The International Committee of the Red Cross warns that many of today’s remote-controlled weapons could be made autonomous with software upgrades. But problems abound. AI relies on clean, reliable data—something not always available in the fog of war. Earlier this month the ICRC recommended that “unpredictable” autonomous weapons—and those that target humans—be prohibited. But America may resist that. Its National Security Commission on Artificial Intelligence claims a ban would not work anyway—as China and Russia would probably cheat. 在今天,來自全球各地的軍事將領將召開未來砲兵之年度線上會議、共商軍需系統的演進,而彼此在配載人工智慧攻擊型武器的使用上有著日益漸增的共同利益。在去年,亞塞拜然 (Azerbaijan,一跨歐亞/裏海旁/位於外高加索東部的國家) 在與亞美尼亞 (Armenia,亞塞拜然之鄰國) 的作戰中,便投入運用以色列製、可以自動選擇攻擊目標的滯空型彈械 (loitering munitions,其本質上就是內建炸藥的無人機)。中國公司紫燕則自豪於裝載機槍、得以自動完成包含精準打擊等複雜作戰任務的無人直升機。紅十字國際委員會 (International Committee of the Red Cross,ICRC) 警告,今日大多數的遠端遙控武器只要透過軟體系統的升級便可以實現自動化。但問題來了。人工智慧依賴乾淨且可靠的數據資料,但這在戰時的紛擾中可能無法持續獲得。於本月稍早,ICRC 便提議立法禁止使用「無法預測」且可能傷害人類的自動化武器。但美國則可能對此表示抗拒。美國人工智慧國家安全委員會 (National Security Commission on Artificial Intelligence) 聲稱,由於中國與俄羅斯可能「出奧步」,因此這樣的禁令根本毫無用武之地。 ⚜️Daily takeaway⚜️ 每日單字精選 ✅Virtually (adv.): 幾乎地、實質上地、線上地、虛擬地 (副) ✅Munition (n.): 彈藥、軍需品 (名) ✅Artificial intelligence (n.): 人工智慧 (名) ✅Offensive (n./adj.): 來犯者 (名)、攻擊性的 (形) ✅In-built (adj.): 內建的、內置的 (形) ✅Remote-controlled (adj.): 遙控的 (形) ✅Reliable (adj.): 可靠的 (形) ✅Unpredictable (adj.): 不可預料的、變化莫測的 (形) ✅Prohibit (v.): 禁止、查禁 (動) ✅Cheat (v.): 作弊、欺騙、詐欺、外遇 (動) — ✔︎ 按讚【每日一經濟學人】Facebook 粉專:https://reurl.cc/Lddode ✔︎ 追蹤【每日一經濟學人】Instagram 帳號:https://reurl.cc/Oqqoq3 ✔︎ 訂閱【每日一經濟學人】YouTube 頻道:https://reurl.cc/Y665dX ✔︎ 閱讀【每日一經濟學人】Medium 平台:https://reurl.cc/k00WZr — 🔶如有商業合作或業務需求,請洽:[email protected] 🔴如影音內容有誤,歡迎來信勘誤:[email protected] -- Hosting provided by SoundOn
