Is AI coming to the UCMJ?

The Navy is testing technology that may produce transcripts the panel can review during deliberations. Using artificial intelligence to make instantaneous transcripts will, ideally, increase the accuracy of testimony reviewed by the fact-finder while avoiding time-consuming replay of audio recordings. After a few mock courts-martial, the testing revealed the AI had trouble comprehending military jargon. Perhaps the new technology will succeed where humans have failed, but it is hard to imagine even the most powerful supercomputers making sense of the military’s pervasive use of acronyms. Good luck!
