Artificial Intelligence in the Military: How AI Is Reshaping the Future of War
The Pentagon’s Project Maven, now run by the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency, uses AI to identify objects in surveillance images, cutting target identification from hours to minutes.

The UN General Assembly voted in late 2024 to start formal talks on lethal autonomous weapons in 2025.
