Artificial Intelligence and Military Decision Making: Revisiting OODA Loop Framework
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: This article intends to argue on the importance of OODA loop framework for analysing the opportunities and challenges offered by Artificial Intelligence in the Decision-Making process. The article has re-visited the OODA loop conceptual framework as it was given out by John Boyd for four phases of actions to any military situation i.e. Observe-Orient-Decide-Act and linkage has been established of each phase with the relevant military domain of warfare. In the subsequent analysis the article intends to re-evaluate the impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on the OODA framework to highlight the relevance of each phase with technology infusion and changes thereof in Physical, Information and Cognitive domains. In the conclusive part of article, it is will be established that OODA framework continues to be relevant even today, however, its application has changed when viewed through the prism of AI and modern analytical tools.
