Artificial intelligence (AI) is continuing to advance and has now defeated a human fighter pilot in a virtual combat simulation.

This result was achieved in the US Army’s AlphaDogfight competition, which aimed to demonstrate the feasibility of developing autonomous agents capable of defeating enemy aircraft in aerial combat.

Eight teams participated in a series of tests and in the final last Thursday, Heron Systems was declared the winner after two days of aerial combat using only nose-mounted guns.
