The United States Army is testing a revolutionary information gathering tool that, using artificial intelligence, would be

able to predict enemy movements days in advance

.

Its name is

GIDE

, or Global Information Domination Experiment for its acronym in English.

Its operation is clear:

increasing the amount of real-time information

that army leaders can access to prepare for an enemy action and, if possible, end it before a conflict has taken place.

Said in flatter language, it is a technology to predict what enemies are going to do and

prevent them from attacking.

Commander Glen VarHerck of

NORTHCOM

(the United States Northern Command) has announced this new technology and has confirmed that they have been testing it for an indeterminate time to improve decision-making and information processing in the military.

The latest experiment carried out with

GIDE has simulated an attack on the Panama Canal

with 11 US Army commandos pretending to be a threat.

VanHerck explained that, during the simulated operation, information was acquired through a multitude of sensors located around the world, both in the military and civilian spectrum.

By throwing this data into

an artificial intelligence model capable of predicting patterns

and giving the alert when there is a risk, such as the presence of a submarine.

By having this information sooner than is achievable by traditional methods, the military can

take longer action

to prevent a conflict from escalating.

Those responsible point out that GIDE does not invent or add information on its own.

"It must be borne in mind that this is not new information, but rather it is

information that is not analyzed and processed until a time after the conflict has passed

," they say.

"All we are doing is taking and sharing and making it viable sooner. This way, our key decision makers will have more options before we are forced to escalate a conflict."

Among the information that this technology would be able to contemplate are data such as the number of cars in parking lots, the planes present at airports or, in more specific cases, detect when missiles are being prepared to be launched.

Despite being still in its infancy, GIDE is already surrounded by controversy, as some of

its technology comes from the failed Project Maven

against which Google employees rebelled when they discovered that their company was developing person recognition technology for the military.

All the computer programs linked to GIDE are already available and ready to be deployed in the different combat positions of the US Army.

But according to its creators, it

will take the collaboration of international partners

to develop its full potential.
