A two-week US Air Force wargame hosted in Alexandria, Virginia, marked the first large-scale use of the “WarMatrix” AI system to guide decision-making. Artificial intelligence (AI) continues to be among the biggest “game changers” in the modern era. It automates tasks, can be used to analyze vast amounts of data, and enhances decision-making. For those reasons and many others, AI is also impacting wargaming at all levels. For the “gamer” community, AI promises to deliver even more realistic and immersive experiences. For the US military, however, it can help better prepare warfighters for future conflicts.
The WarMatrix Reloaded
Last month, the United States Air Force put the AI-enabled WarMatrix wargaming platform through the paces. During a two-week-long event hosted by Systems Planning and Analysis in Alexandria, Virginia, more than 150 servicemembers participated in an AI-supported wargame—including participants from Pacific Air Forces leadership and the Air Force Warfare Center, as well as from the other branches of the US military and allied partners.
