Zusammenfassung: | Artificial intelligences (AI) will increasingly participate digitally and
physically in conflicts, yet there is a lack of trused communications with
humans for humanitarian purposes. In this paper we consider the integration of
a communications protocol (the 'whiteflag protocol'), distributed ledger
'blockchain' technology, and information fusion with AI, to improve conflict
communications called 'protected assurance understanding situation and
entitities' PAUSE. Such a trusted human-AI communication network could provide
accountable information exchange regarding protected entities, critical
infrastructure, humanitiarian signals and status updates for humans and
machines in conflicts. We examine several realistic potential case studies for
the integration of these technologies into a trusted human-AI network for
humanitarian benefit including mapping a conflict zone with civilians and
combatants in real time, preparation to avoid incidents and using the network
to manage misinformation. We finish with a real-world example of a PAUSE-like
network, the Human Security Information System (HSIS), being developed by
USAID, that uses blockchain technology to provide a secure means to better
understand the civilian environment. |
