Experts predict that robots will replace a large number of U.S. troops: one team will have one driver

According to US media, the wave of automation that has wiped out a large number of manufacturing and office jobs in the United States in the past 20 years is now sweeping the army. Some positions like rear commanders and front lines are at risk.

According to the report of the “San Diego Union Tribune” website on February 20, “As in the civil economy, automation may have a major impact on military organizations in logistics and manufacturing,” said University of Pennsylvania professor and world-renowned robotic robot expert Michael. Horowitz said.

"The U.S. military is likely to seek automated technologies that can reduce the cost of the rear sector and also to withdraw soldiers from non-combat deployments because they may face enemy threats on mobile battlefields such as transportation."

Unmanned cars that could cause taxi, train and truck drivers to lose their jobs in the civilian sector may also eliminate many combat support positions in the Army.

The warehouse robots that deliver the goods to the truck can also perform similar tasks in the Air Force's ordnance and supply department.

A new machine that can complete the browsing, proofreading, and analysis of hundreds of thousands of legal documents in one day may be better than the Navy's legal researchers.

Nurses, doctors, and medics may face competition from computers that can diagnose diseases and provide assistance in the operating room.

The frogman may no longer need to go underwater for manual de-mining - the robot can do the job.

"Robots will continue to replace labor in those jobs that are dirty and dangerously boring, which will have a greater impact on those with low education and low skill levels." Henrik, head of the Institute of Situational Robotics, University of California, San Diego Christensen said, "The logistics task does not have to be completed by the truck driver. The drivers will be less and less. The lead driver of a team may be served by people, but the trucks that follow will not be needed."

As for the warships, Horowitz said that due to economic and manpower-saving considerations, they are increasingly designing to "reduce the number of crew required for operations."
