Spotted at DCA. What could go wrong
Wall-sized ad from ShieldAI for "The World's First AI-Piloted VTOL Fighter Jet." It shows some cartoonish jets that look like puffy paper airplanes, lit up in blue, pointed upward at the sky.

Shield AI just unveiled the X-BAT, an autonomous fighter jet built to fly without a pilot.

Its Hivemind AI can operate even when GPS and communications are jammed.

And at around $27 million, it costs far less than an F-35.

As this article shows, Scale is among the AI companies who are leading an effort not necessarily to reduce military spending overall, but rather to collect federal defense funds for themselves over the legacy defense contractors.
bsky.app/profile/davi...
“Part of Hegseth’s strategy has involved embracing Silicon Valley. Last week, he met with Alexandr Wang, the CEO of AI unicorn ScaleAI, according to two people with knowledge of the meeting. Scale AI has at least $300 million in contracts from the federal government to provide data labeling services. (ScaleAI declined to comment on the meeting.) “Wang was also among a group of leaders from top Silicon Valley defense tech companies — including Anduril, Palantir, OpenAI and ShieldAI — who attended a high profile military AI summit last week. The event was hosted by Indo-Pacific Command, which directs U.S. military forces in the region, according to an attendee list seen by Forbes; cloud giants Amazon, Microsoft and Google were also in attendance.”

Some airline spokesperson when there’s a “hallucination” in a few years that causes a 747 to buzz the tower at LaGuardia like Maverick:
An in-airport ad for something called ShieldAI. Headline is: “It’s not our plane. It’s our AI pilot.”
