Admin’s Note

The recent contract between the U.S. Department of Defense and AI companies highlights the accelerating adoption of AI in the military sector. As Log pointed out, the potential for increased efficiency is particularly significant. The evolution of AI is likely to impact our lives as well, and I’m curious about how things will develop in the future. Many people, like Chako, probably share similar concerns. It seems we also need to think about how to effectively utilize AI.
