Bridge champion, artificial intelligence Nook is already at the service of the military

After defeating several bridge champions, Thales will use the Nook artificial intelligence to analyze and synthesize data for the benefit of army personnel.

French tech giant Thales is using artificial intelligence (AI) from startup NukkAI, which recently triumphed over bridge champions, for a new military decision support system, it said Thursday, January 12.

Nook, this artificial intelligence, had beaten eight international bridge champions in March, managing to outperform humans in almost 80% of the games played. A “cousin” of the Nook will be used in a new tool developed by Thales, intended for military staffs and command centers.

Analytical and deductive skills.

It will make it possible to automatically analyze and synthesize the mass of information coming from the theater of operations -videos, sounds, social networks, satellite images, telephone conversations, data from the teams involved…- so that the personnel have the most complete vision possible from the situation.

Through its analysis and deduction capabilities, the new tool should allow “a few dozen military analysts” to do the work that today mobilizes “a thousand” of them, he added. The tool will be tested next fall in a NATO exercise, Steadfast Jupiter.

Instantly justify your choices

A small cell of analysts using the tool will work in parallel with the traditional analysis center and the results of the two will be compared. The military appeal of the NukkAI AI engine is that it makes extensive use of “symbolic” or “logical” AI.

It is able to instantly justify its deductions and its choices because it is based on knowledge bases and formal reasoning that the software can restore.

On the contrary, programs that use only neural networks, at the origin of the enormous developments in artificial intelligence in recent years, are true “black boxes”, most of the time incapable of explaining their path to reach that or that point. what conclusion
