Artificial Intelligence-Assisted Training Corridor Flight

California: According to the aerospace company Lockheed Martin, an artificially intelligent tactical training aircraft recently flew for more than 17 hours.

 According to a company press release, this is the first time artificial intelligence has been used to pilot a tactical aircraft. The "Variable In-Flight Simulation Test Aircraft (VISTA)," which can imitate the performance characteristics of other aircraft, was piloted by artificial intelligence.

According to Dr M. Christopher Kotting, director of research at the Test Pilot School of the United States Air Force, Vista will assist in coordinating the development and testing of cutting-edge artificial intelligence techniques in brand-new unmanned aircraft.

He said that new vehicle systems are being tested simultaneously as they are being developed, and he was worried that unmanned aircraft would soon become autonomous and provide our warplanes with capabilities that are comparable to or superior to those of unmanned aircraft.

During an exercise at Edwards Air Base in California's US Air Force Test Pilot School, the artificial intelligence agent piloted the aircraft.

Together with the US Air Force and Kelspin Corporation, Lockheed Martin's Skunkworks division developed the aircraft.

The business claims that this aircraft reduces operating expenses and enhances training procedures.
