<h5>Dogfight?! Why would dogs fight?</h5><p>What does "dogfight" bring to mind? Perhaps two dogs fighting each other. Here, it’s about planes fighting it out in the sky.</p><p>"Dogfight" means close-range aerial combat between fighter aircraft in the sky. Pilots try to shoot down other planes while avoiding getting shot themselves.</p><figure class="image"><img src="https://firebasestorage.googleapis.com/v0/b/newsahoot.appspot.com/o/human-v-ai-dogfight%2FX62A%20Vista.jpg?alt=media&amp;token=03c0c195-8f64-4570-b605-78dbcb31fa0d"><figcaption>The AI-piloted aircraft.

Also, no live weapons were used, and pilots were present on the AI-piloted plane to take control if anything went wrong.</p><h5>Innovation in warfare!</h5><p>The recent dogfight proves AI can be used in warfare, possibly replacing humans and saving lives.</p><p>But it also raises questions like what would happen if AI turned against humans? What will happen then?</p><p>Maybe we should use AI to solve issues related to healthcare, the environment etc., that benefit society.</p>

The aerial combat was successfully conducted last year.
