Washington, DC - Military leaders at the Pentagon no longer have to rely on human eyes watching multiple places at once thanks to artificial intelligence (AI) that can track enemy movements and predict an attack days in advance.

Using futuristic artificial intelligence to be a step ahead of your enemies seems even too cool for sci-fi, but it is very real.

According to The Drive, the Pentagon has begun using the Global Information Dominance Experiments (GIDE) program, which is a blend of special sensors, satellite intel, and cloud computing that is all rolled up into one AI powerful enough to monitor multiple hotspots the world over at the same time.

GIDE can predict enemy movements "days in advance," according to Command leader General Glen VanHerck.

Historically, a military would need spies and countless individuals watching hours of footage, satellite movements, and analyzing data just to keep on top of an enemy's movements.

Now, GIDE could determine if a potential attack is in the works based on the smallest movements of enemy military programs. It doesn't eliminate the need for human eyes to validate the warnings it produces, and like any AI, it will need to be trained. However, should everything go smoothly, it could be in use as soon as next year.

Being able to predict movements so far ahead of time doesn't necessarily mean that the military has to take offensive action. Having extra time can also provide room for peace negotiations before an enemy has time to strike.

"The ability to see days in advance creates decision space. Decision space for me as an operational commander to potentially posture forces to create deterrence options to provide that to the secretary or even the president," explained VanHerck.

This ability and the power behind it is what gives our country "decision superiority", he says.
