Drone vs Human
The detail that is missing from that article is what kind of fight are we talking about?
If it is a BVR scenario then I’m sure AI decision making could beat the human by a second or two.
If we are talking guns kills then I remain to be convinced it is worth the effort. Maybe the AI can eke out a few more bernouillis than a human.
In the world of all-aspect, high off-boresight missiles BFM (assuming no pre-merge kills) then, yes, the AI may well be able to get a firing solution quicker than a human.
Regardless of all of this, even the AI will still be constrained by the limits of radar and weapons.
It’s an interesting experiment that could go either way I suggest.
