Удосконалення військової гри за допомогою штучного інтелекту: перший крок у побудові довіри до людино-машинної команди

The development of new technologies continues to increase the complexity of warfare. Artificial intelligence is one of the technologies that can dramatically change the nature of armed conflicts. Therefore, it is crucial to experiment and integrate artificial technologies in safe environments, such as wargames, before implementing them in operating systems and using them as a decision support tool. Teamwork between humans and machines is one such area. Combining humans with artificial intelligence makes it possible to synergistically use the strengths of each. The computational capabilities of artificial intelligence make it possible to support human decision-making by providing predictive and recommendation-based analysis. Such human-machine collaboration has the potential to realize qualitative gains in decision-making and can enhance the learning of participants by providing them with an understanding of the factors that allow artificial intelligence to identify the best options and associated risks. Human-machine teamwork in wargames also promises the added benefit of building trust between human decision makers and the artificial intelligence that supports them. However, human-machine teamwork is not without its challenges. The purpose of the article. Therefore, the purpose of the article is to identify ways to improve the results of wargames by introducing reliable artificial intelligence. Research methods. The following research methods were used in writing the article. Content analysis of recent research and publications to identify issues within the current body of knowledge. Decomposition - when analyzing a wargame and dividing it into its components to identify potential ways to improve it, which can be obtained through the introduction of artificial intelligence. Analysis – when assessing the potential benefits of introducing artificial intelligence into each of the components of a wargame. Synthesis – in determining the optimal nodes for the introduction of artificial intelligence in order to maximize the benefits. The article analyzes research and summarizes the concept of artificial intelligence and its technologies. Presenting the main material. Using the example of games, the article analyzes the effectiveness of artificial intelligence and highlights how artificial intelligence outperforms human performance in a number of benchmark games. The role, goals, and design of wargames, as well as the role of artificial intelligence in their conduct, are analyzed. The role of artificial intelligence and possible risks and ways to improve the game when using artificial intelligence technologies are determined. A reasonable conclusion is made about the possibility of trusting artificial intelligence in wargames. Based on the results of the study, it can be argued that human-machine interaction in wargames can help in decision-making and contribute to the education and training of decision-makers. The elements of scientific novelty. The article reveals and substantiates that the use of artificial intelligence in wargames contributes to: improving the decision-making process; increasing the level of situational awareness, cognitive training of military officers; building trust in the human-machine team. The theoretical and practical significance. Increasing trust in artificial intelligence requires a clear understanding of how it arrives at conclusions and recommendations. Further research should focus on developing algorithms for visualizing the decision-making process of artificial intelligence.
