Envisioning the Impact of Artificial Intelligence on Satellites, Space Entrepreneurship, and Government Defense Systems according to Experts.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the talk of the town, yet its potential impact on real-world tools and systems in the coming months and years remains largely unknown.
Predictions about AI’s future vary widely, ranging from doom and gloom to optimism from corporate executives and chipmakers who are already reaping the benefits of this groundbreaking technology. Wall Street sees massive investments flowing into companies associated with what was once considered a speculative field.
Microsoft’s significant investment in ChatGPT, the renowned AI tool based on large language models (LLM), has led its President, Brad Smith, to suggest that Earth will soon become “query-able” using this technology. This means satellites equipped with geospatial intelligence could provide instantaneous results, detecting objects of any size anywhere on the planet.
However, for AI to reach its full potential, it needs to become more intelligent through deep learning. LLMs rely on parameters that assess information and determine the boundaries of AI’s predictive capabilities, including its ability to engage in human-like conversations.
Recently, in 2020, ChatGPT employed 175 billion parameters. Remarkably, the Chinese Sunway exaflop supercomputer now boasts over 174 trillion parameters, marking a significant milestone as the first human brain-scaled AI ever created.
