« Pentagon believes its precognitive AI can predict events 'days in advance' » by Engadget

The US military's AI experiments are growing particularly ambitious. The US Northern Command recently completed a string of tests for Global Information Dominance Experiments (GIDE), a combination of AI, cloud computing and sensors that could give the Pentagon the ability to predict events "days in advance," according to Command leader General Glen VanHerck. It's not as mystical as it sounds, but it could lead to a major change in military and government operations

intelligence » by The Economist

As Stewart Brand, a pioneer of online communities, put it: “Information wants to be free, because the cost of getting it out is getting lower and lower all the time.” It was not to be. Bad information often drove out good. Authoritarian states co-opted the technologies that were supposed to loosen their grip. Information was wielded as a weapon of war. Amid this disappointment one development offers cause for fresh hope: the emerging era of open-source intelligence (OSINT).

Turkey's Method in the Mediterranean: The Hold over Northern Cyprus

On July 20, 2021, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan visits North Cyprus to celebrate the 47th anniversary of the 1974 Operation Attila, a Turkish military intervention in response to a coup aimed at annexing the island to Greece.

A word of vocabulary

Precision is an indicator that can be used as a measure of quality and relevance. It is calculated by dividing the number of true positives by the number of total positives. Thus precision can be defined as the proportion of relevant elements in the total set.

Precision is used in many fields such as Machine Learning or Natural Language Processing. More precisely, precision is used in pattern recognition, information research and automatic classification. For example, a search engine will use this indicator to analyse the relevance of its tool.

ZAPAD-2021, a quadrennial exercise of the Russian Armed Forces of exceptional scope, will take place from September 10 to 16, 2021, and will be closely followed by the international military intelligence community. In this context, Preligens will make use of its IMINT and OSINT tools in order to offer a successful monitoring of the maneuvers.
