AI for defence: readiness, resilience and mental health

AI for defence: readiness, resilience and mental health
AI for defence: readiness, resilience and mental health
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a cross-cutting technology that is making a major impact on behavioural analysis in both the defence and mental health domains. Employing AI well could boost readiness and resilience of military personnel. This article explores how AI is being used today in research and practice for Mental Health in the Defence domain. We identify key challenges that exist and signpost the important trends and directions of travel that could build bridges between these domains for the ultimate benefit of both.

Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a cross-cutting technology that is making a major impact on behavioural analysis in both the defence and mental health domains. Employing AI well could boost readiness and resilience of military personnel. This article explores how AI is being used today in research and practice for Mental Health in the Defence domain. We identify key challenges that exist and signpost the important trends and directions of travel that could build bridges between these domains for the ultimate benefit of both.
