For anyone who thinks AI is just a big scam or whatever..
First announcement: OpenAI collaborates with defence startup company Anduril
as I said in my tweet today, Sam Altman is a professional bullshitter with super human power of tricking people into overvaluing what he has to sell.
AI has a lot of real world applications, but I'm not sure how much openAI chatbot is really going to help you defend against incoming missiles. But never stop the tech bros from overhyping their AI to get more funding.

That is cool until the LLM start hallucinating crap and soldiers start dying. The reality is there is real AI in the military since the 90s or even before, TERCOM, DSMAC, automated remote sensing AI software, Automated Targeting and so on and works great, algorithms that do one thing and that thing really good. Like google Alphafold, it does one thing and do that thing really good, what this crypto bros stooges is AGI hype, multimodal models that do a lot of things mediocrely. One area that LLMs could help is probably in code generation to reduce costs, maybe document review and legal stuff, automated mailing and chatbots to spread fake news automated.
OpenAI's operator(computer use) tool can be used to ease the burden on humans
This applies to all domains
Models are now trained on multi modal data. The model should be able to generalize if it is trained on enough data
We are in the very early stages. Let's see how it plays out.
Yes, I know they are a real defense company and I know they are a hype machine from SV.
There is not a lot of need to over read into these partnerships. OpenAI needs to mention they have additional revenue to justify their ridiculously overvaluation.
AI application is used in a lot of military tech already. You don't need OpenAI to do this.
1- Neural network (in this case a "transformer") trained on 99.9% general mostly crappy data and 0.1% specific mission data vs a neural network (whatever the type is required) trained on 90% mission specific data or better yet a AI Silicon?
2-OpenAI is a cloud company with none local models and zero smart small models like the ones that Meta and Alibaba are researching that can be used on local hardware, how OpenAI is going to operate in a signal denial zone?
