DSH/Warcoded Kill Chains and Algorithmic Warfare – Autonomy in Targeting and Engagement (Ep. 282)

In this gripping follow-up, we dive into how AI is transforming kinetic operations—from identifying a threat to executing a strike. 🔍 Highlights from this episode: How AI compresses the OODA loop (Observe, Orient, Decide, Act) The spectrum of autonomy: human-on-the-loop vs. human-out-of-the-loop Real-world systems like loitering munitions (Switchblade, Harpy) and Selective Ground Response AI (SGR-AI) The ethical and legal dimensions of delegating lethal decisions to machines   As the lines blur between algorithm and operator, we explore who—or what—is pulling the trigger.     Sponsors Warcoded is proudly sponsored by Amethix Technologies.
