ROLE OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN ENHANCING OPERATIONAL EFFICIENCY IN ARMED FORCES

Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming modern military operations by significantly enhancing operational efficiency, decision-making, and resource optimization. Armed forces across the world are integrating AI-driven technologies such as machine learning, predictive analytics, autonomous systems, and intelligent surveillance into their operational frameworks. This paper explores the role of AI in improving efficiency in armed forces, highlighting its applications in logistics, intelligence, combat operations, and maintenance. The study also discusses benefits, challenges, and future implications of AI in defense systems. Keywords: Artificial Intelligence, Military Efficiency, Defense Systems, Autonomous Weapons, Predictive Analytics, Smart Warfare
