China was noted by the U.S. Department of Defense to have made significant strides in improving its large language models and LLM-based reasoning models for generative AI, which have become on par with leading models developed by the U.S., DefenseScoop reports.
Military-civil fusion mechanisms have been employed by China to guarantee the integration of AI breakthroughs into military research and development projects, with Beijing advancing AI tech investment in unmanned systems, cyber operations, information campaigns, and other military operations, according to a report from the Pentagon.
Intensified information operations are also expected to be launched by China against Taiwan.
"Beijing almost certainly considers cognitive domain operations to be a key component of its pressure campaign against Taiwan, intended to weaken Taiwan's will to resist and heighten social divisions in the country," said the Defense Department.
Such a report comes after the Pentagon unveiled the imminent inclusion of xAI for Government's "frontier-grade" capabilities to its GenAI.mil platform.
