Battle Bottle - an AI brain to make the most cost-optimised drone deployment decisions

In this episode, we talk with Francis Jones, founder of Battle Bottle, a UK defence tech company developing an AI brain that sits between sensors and effectors to make the most cost-optimised drone deployment decisions.

We discuss how to reduce decision fatigue as operators have an increasing number of uncrewed systems at their disposal, how AI can help improve the cost asymmetry of modern warfare, the growing role of simulation in training and developing autonomous systems, and the future of human-machine teaming.
