U.S. report reveals China’s plans to develop an army of robot soldiers with advanced AI

A report from the United States revealed that China is planning to develop a powerful army of robot soldiers powered by AI.

That’s what the U.S. National Security Commission on Emerging Biotechnology states in a document revealing that Chinese “supersoldiers” would have advanced AI modifications to make smart decisions in the field.

China’s goal is to deploy them by 2049. However, the report highlights the dangers of introducing such technologies on a global scale and also provides some options to curb the progress of China’s project, according to the website Interesting Engineering.

The report also states that “there will be a ChatGPT moment for biotechnology,” meaning the launch of artificial intelligence will become increasingly popular and accessible in the coming years, but “if China gets there first, we may never catch up.”

If this technology is successfully deployed, the use of drones would become practically obsolete. Currently, unmanned drones are the main focus of military investment and development in most countries.

“Drone warfare will seem outdated if we have to deal with genetically modified PLA ‘supersoldiers,’ with humans and AI fused together,” said the U.S. National Security Commission on Emerging Biotechnology.
