This seems to be a clickbait headline - where is the AI part? It was just a remotely controlled gun.
>Next, the report details how the sniper who took out Fakhrizadeh did so remotely from Israel, over 1,600 kilometers away, since the hit squad had long ago left Iran.
- gameshot911 5y agoThe NYT article mentioned facial recognition tech, as well as software which would compensate from the lag inherent in controlling the gun by satellite. Maybe the article considers one of those AI?
- _alxk 5y agoThey apparently used some ML to make predictions about the position of the driver and the future position of the vehicle to account for the lag when they pulled the remote trigger from hundreds of miles away.
- uncoder0 5y agoThat's pretty trivial 'AI'. The headline mentioning AI is just for clickbait, in reality it was just a remotely-operated drone gun with a fire control system.
- throwaway984393 5y agoMost 'AI' is trivial. If spam detection had been invented today they'd call it "Spam AI".
- uncoder0 5y agoYou're not wrong. I'm gonna add AI to our pitch deck for our A probably will be able to raise an additional 40%.
- Isamu 5y agoSounds like something you’d use a Kalman filter for. Except maybe because a Kalman filter expects Gaussian inputs, something fancier is used to deal with nonlinear inputs? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalman_filter https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalman_filter
- cududa 5y agoRight. As well, the gun mounted in the truck needs to account for real world wind, vehicle recoil/ follow through
