Dr. Joel Mozer believes combining humans and machines to work as a team He suggests using AI's abilities to create 'unimaginable' strategies, coupled with a human's ability to resolve ambiguity, apply judgment, morality and ethics Mozer says the result would be superhuman intelligence that should be employed by the US military to compete with its adversaries
Combining humans with machines to create superhuman intelligence may soon no longer be the plot of science-fiction films, as the US Space Force's chief scientist say it will happen in 'the coming decade.'
Dr. Joel Mozer, speaking at an event at the Airforce Research Laboratory Wednesday, announced we are entering the age of 'human augmentation,' which is crucial to the US's national defense in order to not 'fall behind our strategic competitors.'
However, his proposal does not turn humans into cyborgs, but employs 'AI agents' to assist with strategic military planning.
Mozer highlights the abilities seen in developed by a Google subsidiary, AlphaGo Zero, which was able to train itself to play the game of Go at a master level in just a few weeks.
Mozer suggests the extortionary capabilities can lead to superhuman capabilities, by means of combining human ingenuity with the power, speed and efficiency of machines.
The Pentagon would have access to a broader range of ideas than any human or humans could fathom on their own.

It’s really a shame that I’m too old to take advantage of augmentation.
The end of the world and all.
VE CANNOT HAF AN AI GAP!!
Bring back the explosive rat....
“The explosive rat,[1] also known as a rat bomb,[2] was a weapon developed by the British Special Operations Executive (SOE) in World War II for use against Germany. Rat carcasses were filled with plastic explosives, and were to be distributed near German boiler rooms, where it was expected they would be disposed of by burning, with the subsequent explosion having a chance of causing a boiler explosion.
The explosive rats never saw use, as the first shipment was intercepted by the Germans; however, the resulting search for more booby trapped rats consumed enough German resources for the SOE to conclude that the operation was a success.”
Can we just go back and stay in the 80s
“Can we just go back and stay in the 80s”
But I thought we all wanted to party like it’s 1999?
We don’t have to invite prince.

Oh, I know that puts MY mind at ease...
Our military is too busy with breast augmentation...
The F-16 has done exactly that since the 1970's. It is not a new concept.
F-16 pilots "think" the plane through its maneuvers not literally but the man-machine interface is so well blended that flying the plane is fun not work. And, you can fly right to the edge of the envelope without fear of becoming a smoking hole in the air or ground.
My Hyundai Sonata is well on it's way there too.
Warning. Language in this series is atrocious. But, it's still fun.
So true,
Tunnel vision and a lack of moral underpinning cause for disaster.
Any one who thinks we are no doing so already, yeah.......
Welcome the BORG.
Khan was the original augment

Actually, I’ll sign up if it helps me remember where my keys are.
DARPA has probably been working on this stuff for _decades_—these kinds of articles are super dumb.
