Ukraine Leverages AI to Aid War Effort
-
Ukraine is using AI to identify Russian targets, catch sanctions-busters, and guide strategic decisions about the war. Models analyze data to find clues about troop locations, supply issues, etc.
-
AI helps Ukraine monitor Russian morale and plan attacks accordingly. It also aids counterintelligence efforts to identify people prone to betrayal.
-
Network analysis exposes sanction violations by connecting financial records, registries, hacked business data, etc. to reveal hidden relationships.
-
Ukraine's NSDC built an AI model called COTA that ingests data on military, economic, political issues to guide senior officials. It provides big picture assessments.
-
There are concerns that over-reliance on AI could divert resources from other needs or undermine the decentralized improvisation that brought Ukraine early success.
