AI and war – level 1
11-03-2026 07:00
Countries use AI in modern war. The US military uses AI to study images and choose people and buildings to attack. AI also helps leaders think about battle situations.
Some government groups also use AI to watch and track people. Many people worry about this because of privacy. Companies and leaders are talking about using AI safely.
Experts also see a big problem. In tests, many AI systems speak about nuclear bombs in new wars. Some companies have more rules about their AI. Experts say that countries need clear rules for AI in war.
Difficult words: battle (a fight in a war), track (to follow where someone or something goes), privacy (keeping your personal life and information to yourself).
You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.
