John Boyd must be rolling over in his grave

• hangonhn 6y ago
  Boyd wasn't just a pilot but also a strategist. One of his biggest adherent is the USMC. I don't imagine him rejecting this outright. I would love to know what he would have thought of AI because the potential speed with which AI can digest observations and make a decision could be an order of magnitude greater than a human. Boyd's EM theory was heavily influenced by analysis he and his collaborators did using early computers. I can imagine him being awed by AI and embracing it.

    I can't wait for the first time an AI squadron gets a sortie phoned in and it turns out no one double checked to make sure the info was good. Are there any metrics on pilot's making abort calls and not attacking anywhere?
