Military academic institutions are exploring how to adapt curricula to prepare students for AI as well as technologies that do not yet exist

The use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in education has the potential to improve the experience for both students and educators. Still, few fully understand the benefits and limitations of its use. How can professional military education maximise the benefits of AI without creating an unhealthy reliance on the technology or compromising other critical skills?

Hosted by the Initiative for the Digital Economy (INDEX), the Defence Data Research Centre (DDRC) and the US Army War College, this event brought together representatives from military academic institutions from the UK, US and Europe to explore how best to use in military education. The event shared examples of good practice (e.g., where the use of AI has more effectively delivered education outcomes), reviewed challenges, and identified possible future use cases.
