## Small AI models let drones autonomously identify and attack battlefield targets Scaleout deploys decentralized AI-driven learning to military bases and drones. As European militaries adapt to the use of AI and drones in modern warfare, a NATO-backed startup is helping to deploy AI-driven target detection and selection that can run on small drones for surveillance and attack missions. The company Scaleout Systems was originally founded by researchers from Uppsala University in Sweden in 2018, and initially focused on training and deploying machine learning models directly on the hardware…
