Abstract

One does not have to look far to see how Artificial Intelligence (AI)-the ability of machines to perform tasks that typically require human intelligence-is transforming the international security environment in which all involved security forces operates. Due to its cross-cutting nature, AI will pose a broad set of international security challenges, affecting both traditional military capabilities and the realm of hybrid threats, and will likewise provide new opportunities to respond to them. AI will have an impact on all of core tasks of every collective defense, crisis management, and cooperative security systems. With new opportunities, risks, and threats to prosperity and security at stake, the promise and peril associated with this foundational technology are too vast for any single actor to manage alone. As a result, cooperation is inherently needed to equally mitigate international security risks, as well as to capitalize on the technology's potential to transform enterprise functions, mission support, and operations. The aim of the paper is to present drones that learn on their own, i.e., that possess artificial intelligence, and which can be used for military purposes. The paper presents the possibility of autonomous use of drones with artificial intelligence in combat and non-combat operations of the army. Drones supported by GIS, C5IRS (command, control, computers, communications, cyber-defense (C5), intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) and AI will give significantly advantage on the ground, because they can operate alone and will learn in line with the ground situation. With the fusion of human, information, and physical elements increasingly determining decisive advantage in the battlespace, interoperability becomes even more essential.
