Now another AI has successfully managed to beat an ace fighter pilot in a combat simulation.
The result, the Colonel lost.
In a series of flight combat simulations, the A.I.
successfully dodged Lee, and shot him down every time.
In a statement, Lee called it the most aggressive, responsive, dynamic and credible A.I.
Ive seen to date.
Having said that, Lee is experienced when it comes to aerial combat is a remarkable understatement.
He is an adversary tactics instructor who has trained thousands of U.S. Air Force pilots.
Hes controlled or flown in thousands of air-to-air intercepts as mission commander or pilot.
Yet, not even once he was successful in winning against ALPHA.
I was surprised at how aware and reactive it was.
It knew how to defeat the shot I was taking.
It moved instantly between defensive and offensive actions as needed, Lee said.
Currently, Alpha is viewed as a research tool for manned and unmanned teaming in a simulation environment.
Im tired, drained and mentally exhausted.
This may be artificial intelligence, but it represents a real challenge.
Details on Alpha are published in the most-recent issue of the Journal of Defense Management.
