Robots & Artificial IntelligenceUS fighter pilots try taking directions from AI for the first time Posted on October 7, 2025 by Administrator US fighter pilots took directions from an AI system for the first time in a test that could drastically change combat tactics, Fox reported. Fighter pilots in action typically communicate with ground support who monitor radar and tell pilots where to fly. During the Air Force and Navy’s test this month, pilots instead consulted with Raft AI’s “air battle manager” technology to confirm their flight path was on track and to receive faster reports of nearby enemy aircraft.
