Artificial intelligence and UK national security: Policy considerations
RUSI was commissioned by GCHQ to conduct an independent research study into the use of artificial intelligence (AI) for national security purposes. The aim of this project is to establish an independent evidence base to inform future policy development regarding national security uses of AI. The findings are based on in-depth consultation with stakeholders from across the UK national security community, law enforcement agencies, private sector companies, academic and legal experts, and civil society representatives. This was complemented by a targeted review of existing literature on the topic of AI and national security.
The research has found that AI offers numerous opportunities for the UK national security community to improve efficiency and effectiveness of existing processes. AI methods can rapidly derive insights from large, disparate datasets and identify connections that would otherwise go unnoticed by human operators. However, in the context of national security and the powers given to UK intelligence agencies, use of AI could give rise to additional privacy and human rights considerations which would need to be assessed within the existing legal and regulatory framework. For this reason, enhanced policy and guidance is needed to ensure the privacy and human rights implications of national security uses of AI are reviewed on an ongoing basis as new analysis methods are applied to data
Bounded Rationality and Heuristics in Humans and in Artificial Cognitive Systems
In this paper I will present an analysis of the impact that the notion of “bounded rationality”,
introduced by Herbert Simon in his book “Administrative Behavior”, produced in the
field of Artificial Intelligence (AI). In particular, by focusing on the field of Automated
Decision Making (ADM), I will show how the introduction of the cognitive dimension into
the study of choice of a rational (natural) agent, indirectly determined - in the AI field - the
development of a line of research aiming at the realisation of artificial systems whose decisions
are based on the adoption of powerful shortcut strategies (known as heuristics) based
on “satisficing” - i.e. non optimal - solutions to problem solving. I will show how the
“heuristic approach” to problem solving allowed, in AI, to face problems of combinatorial
complexity in real-life situations and still represents an important strategy for the design
and implementation of intelligent systems
Novel Artificial Human Optimization Field Algorithms - The Beginning
New Artificial Human Optimization (AHO) Field Algorithms can be created from
scratch or by adding the concept of Artificial Humans into other existing
Optimization Algorithms. Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) has been very
popular for solving complex optimization problems due to its simplicity. In
this work, new Artificial Human Optimization Field Algorithms are created by
modifying existing PSO algorithms with AHO Field Concepts. These Hybrid PSO
Algorithms comes under PSO Field as well as AHO Field. There are Hybrid PSO
research articles based on Human Behavior, Human Cognition and Human Thinking
etc. But there are no Hybrid PSO articles which based on concepts like Human
Disease, Human Kindness and Human Relaxation. This paper proposes new AHO Field
algorithms based on these research gaps. Some existing Hybrid PSO algorithms
are given a new name in this work so that it will be easy for future AHO
researchers to find these novel Artificial Human Optimization Field Algorithms.
A total of 6 Artificial Human Optimization Field algorithms titled "Human
Safety Particle Swarm Optimization (HuSaPSO)", "Human Kindness Particle Swarm
Optimization (HKPSO)", "Human Relaxation Particle Swarm Optimization (HRPSO)",
"Multiple Strategy Human Particle Swarm Optimization (MSHPSO)", "Human Thinking
Particle Swarm Optimization (HTPSO)" and "Human Disease Particle Swarm
Optimization (HDPSO)" are tested by applying these novel algorithms on Ackley,
Beale, Bohachevsky, Booth and Three-Hump Camel Benchmark Functions. Results
obtained are compared with PSO algorithm.Comment: 25 pages, 41 figure
