Artificial intelligence has become an integral part of most people's daily lives, whether it is a question posed to ChatGPT or the use of a model to facilitate work - following its impressive trajectory in recent years, it is now commonplace to find out about its implementation in one area rather than another.

One little-discussed aspect of artificial intelligence, however, concerns its use within the warfare landscape. It is never pleasant to dwell on topics related to immense amounts of pain, nevertheless it is crucial to spread knowledge, whether positive or negative. Following the Hamas attack on the day of Oct. 7, 2023, the Israeli military suddenly began using OpenAI technology - according to an investigation conducted by Associated Press.

Israel's military appears to be using this growing technology to sift through vast archives of information, intercepted communications and surveillance with the aim of detecting suspicious speech or behavior, thereby increasing the possibility of understanding the movements of its adversaries.
