Aug 11, 2023 By Jason Simpkins for the Outsider Club Why the Military Is Key to AI Fortunes AI is all the rage this year, and thereâs no question itâs going to be a huge element of future technology, both mainstream and military. But itâs also not as new as you might think. This trend didnât just pop up overnight. This technology has been in development for decades. And most of that development has occurred right out in the open. Just for example⦠Do you remember IBMâs âWatson,â the supercomputer that competed on Jeopardy? [Watson IBM Jeopardy] That was an AI construct and it was paraded right out in front of everybody. The same is true of âDeep Blueâ the supercomputer that beat world chess champion Garry Kasparov in a pair of six-game chess matches in 1997. Still, even that was the result of decades of work â much of it done by the military. Indeed, to really find the roots of AI, you have to go back to Alan Turing. Turing cracked the Nazisâ Enigma machine encryption during WWII. And in 1950, Turing suggested that computer programs could be taught to think like humans. Tesla in BIG trouble? Forget fossil fuels, lithium batteries, or hydrogen fuel cells...Because these new cars charge themselves even as they cruise down the highway... And every one of them NEEDS the tech produced by ONE small firm you can own now before shares explode. [Discover the details about this tiny tech company here.]( Thus he invented the âTuring test,â which is used to gauge a computerâs ability to imitate human intelligence. That test is still used today. The term âartificial intelligenceâ itself was coined by John McCarthy in 1956, and the phrase âmachine learningâ came along in 1959. Coincidentally, also around that time, DARPA was created by the military to research advanced technology. And from that point on, AI became a key focus of our military. In 1991, DARPA developed the Dynamic Analysis and Replanning Tool (DART) â an AI program that could schedule the transportation of supplies or personnel and solve other logistical problems. That program saved the military millions of dollars as soon as it launched. Fast-forward to today and the Pentagon has a $1.8 billion budget strictly for AI programs and at least 685 ongoing AI projects. Project Maven, for instance, is an AI program that autonomously scours massive amounts of video and images collected by satellites and drones and identifies potential threats and military targets. That launched in 2017 and has continually broadened since then. Then, thereâs Skyborg â an effort to pair jet fighters with autonomous drones that act as wingmen. Flying alongside their larger companion, these drones can draw hostile fire, conduct reconnaissance, identify targets, jam enemy defenses, and even deploy their own ordnance. [Skyborg] URGENT: Look at This Map of America... [TWA EV Payouts after map] Thereâs a silent invasion happening. Those black dots you see are electric vehicle charging stations â but theyâre not like any chargers youâve seen before. Because every one of those units could soon be putting money directly into your bank account... Twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week.

Meanwhile, the Navy has deployed an autonomous submarine hunter. Itâs capable of finding and tracking vessels that would otherwise be invisible to radar and sonar. And because itâs unmanned, it can stay at sea longer than crewed vessels performing the same task. Also in the works is a joint artificial intelligence center meant to oversee and manage all of the militaryâs AI efforts. So truly, the U.S. military has been one of the biggest fountains of AI development ever since its inception. And its rapidly expanding slate of modern AI projects and initiatives continues to drive innovation in the field. Not to mention huge stock gains. Indeed, Iâve made a bundle by cashing in on the companies that have been teaming up with the Pentagon to advance AI development. For example, I recently hit a 139% gain in my Secret Stock Files investment service by investing in a company that helps the Air Force conduct preventative maintenance on its fleet of fighter jets. Another AI stock I recommended has been helping Ukraine pioneer a new type of warfare with its analytics tools. And still another provides high-tech AI simulation training software that lets soldiers interact with virtual combat environments. These are the types of stocks and technologies Iâm constantly investigating at Secret Stock Files. In fact, my latest find is probably going to be my biggest yet, since it makes the rugged supercomputers that are necessary to run complex AI algorithms on the fly. So make sure you [check out my full report on that company here.]( Fight on, [Jason Simpkins Signature] Jason Simpkins [follow basic]([@OCSimpkins on Twitter]( Jason Simpkins is Assistant Managing Editor of the Outsider Club and Investment Director of Wall Street's Proving Ground, a financial advisory focused on security companies and defense contractors.
