There are reports that the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) are using artificial intelligence (AI) systems in military operations. They use AI to select targets for air strikes and manage logistics during war. The IDF uses an AI recommendation system to analyze a lot of data and help decide which targets to strike. Another AI model called Fire Factory helps plan subsequent raids by calculating weapons, prioritizing targets, and proposing a schedule.
AI is used in various industries to automate tasks and analyze data. It can improve efficiency and provide valuable insights for decision-making. While human operators oversee and approve targets and plans, there are concerns about the lack of international or state-level regulation for these AI systems.

Supporters believe that AI can help minimize casualties, but critics worry about the dangers of relying too much on autonomous systems. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) has been extensively using AI and aims to become a global leader in autonomous weaponry. Some AI systems are developed by Israeli defense contractors, and others use advanced cameras to identify people and objects.
Details about the IDF’s use of AI in operations are classified, but officials confirm their experience with these systems during conflicts in the Gaza Strip. The integration of AI in battlefield systems has the potential to reduce civilian casualties and improve efficiency. Proper usage of AI technologies can offer advantages and high precision when the technology works correctly.
