Military Times explica c\u00f3mo el US ARMY ha comenzado a implementar herramientas de Inteligencia Artificial Generativa (IAG), para agilizar la actualizaci\u00f3n de su doctrina y manuales operativos. Lo normal es que este proceso de redacci\u00f3n e investigaci\u00f3n puede tardar a\u00f1os, por lo que el Directorio de Doctrina de Armas Combinadas (CADD) ha comenzado a utilizar la IA para realizar b\u00fasquedas r\u00e1pidas en bases de datos y redactar as\u00ed los borradores de las normas. El objetivo es proporcionar bases doctrinarias actualizadas, ante un campo de batalla que evoluciona m\u00e1s r\u00e1pidamente que la doctrina. No obstante, los militares afirman que la tecnolog\u00eda no sustituye el criterio humano, ya que se han detectado errores o “alucinaciones” donde la IA inventa datos o utiliza fuentes obsoletas. En resumen, esa fuerza busca aprovechar la IA como una herramienta eficiente para recopilar informaci\u00f3n relevante, mejorar la organizaci\u00f3n de ideas y la redacci\u00f3n, manteniendo siempre la supervisi\u00f3n de expertos \u201chumanos\u201d para evitar fallos cr\u00edticos en la normativa.<\/p>\n
When a soldier reads a field manual, they are studying the Army\u2019s guide on how to fight. Now, doctrine writers are using artificial intelligence to update those manuals, the service shared in a press release this week.<\/p>\n
Leaders at the Combined Army Doctrine Directorate have started training authors on generative AI tools to speed up research and drafting, a move that reflects the military\u2019s broader efforts to quickly push updated guidance to a force facing a rapidly-evolving battlefield.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have had people ask us about using AI and large language models to speed up the doctrine development process for years,\u201d said Richard Creed Jr., the directorate\u2019s leader. \u201cSo, when some of these tools became available, the first thing we did was figure out their capabilities,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Doctrine development has historically been a time consuming and tedious process that stretches years, and officials are looking to speed it up by incorporating AI into the writing process, the Army said.<\/p>\n
For example, one internally-developed tool lets authors speedily search hundreds of texts for historical examples, transforming a task that may have previously taken days of investigation. Another tool helps writers check grammar and how easy their work is to comprehend, freeing up leaders to focus on other parts of the process.<\/p>\n
Still, officials noted in the release that the technology is far from perfect and cannot be used without human judgment .<\/p>\n
Lt. Col. Scott McMahan, a doctrine writer assigned to the Operational Level Doctrine Division acknowledged that the tools are flawed and that AI models may \u201challucinate,\u201d and make up information that is not factually accurate. The models are improving though, he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou treat it like a resourceful and motivated young officer who might not know all the information, but they can certainly assist you in cutting some corners and being a little more efficient,\u201d McMahan said.<\/p>\n
Army leaders have been talking about AI on the battlefield as well, warning that a future large-scale fight could\u00a0overwhelm<\/a>\u00a0human capacity with thousands of targets per day. The service has also stood up a dedicated AI and machine learning\u00a0career<\/a>\u00a0field for officers to specialize.<\/p>\n
