je suis allé à la source et j’y ai découvert un article particulièrement intéressant montrant les avancées de la recherche sur l’Intelligence artificielle :

Jusqu’à présent IA (ou la machine) et Homme se sont affrontés aux échecs et récemment au jeu de GO. Nous connaissons tous le résultat…
Cette fois-ci les scientifiques sont allés vers un domaine particulièrement complexe (d’où le titre très racoleur de BFMTV (l’intelligence artificielle est désormais supérieure aux pilotes de chasse): le combat aérien…
Le résultat est assez clair :
However, even after repeated attempts against the more mature version of ALPHA, not only could he not score a kill against it, he was shot out of the air by the reds every time after protracted engagements. He described ALPHA as “the most aggressive, responsive, dynamic and credible AI (he’s) seen-to-date.”
Mais il ne faut pas se limiter à cette conclusion car au final, le test n’a eu lieu qu’avec un pilote. Néanmoins, les scientifiques concluent ainsi :
Thus, ALPHA can currently operate in the domain of microseconds;
one of the side-benefits of fuzzy control. This is utilizing low-budget,
consumer grade products. The human mind is an extremely powerful
machine that will likely always have unbeatable performance in certain
areas. However, the speeds at which ALPHA can intelligently operate
serve as a distinct advantage within the context of air-to-air combat.
Combining these strengths in a mixed manned and unmanned
fighter squadron could prove to be an extremely effective fighting
force. ALPHA controlled aircraft would happily volunteer to take risky
tactics and have the manned craft perform safer support roles. Due to
the transparency and linguistic nature of fuzzy logic, ALPHA would
be an extremely easy AI to cooperate with and have as a teammate.
ALPHA can continuously determine the optimal ways to perform tasks
commanded by its manned wingmen, as well as provide tactical and
situational advice to the rest of its flight.
L’Homme reste ainsi dans la boucle, mais peut avoir une formidable co-équipière : la machine.
