Basic Information
This book contains a very no frills presentation of the Russian Svr. Not quite what I expected. It does give a basic overview, so if short and sweet is what you're looking for then this book is good. If you want to get more in-depth this book is not the way to get there. ... Read more

This is a NAVAL POSTGRADUATE SCHOOL MONTEREY CA report procured by the Pentagon and made available for public release. It has been reproduced in the best form available to the Pentagon. It is not spiral-bound, but rather assembled with Velobinding in a soft, white linen cover. The Storming Media report number is A589043. The abstract provided by the Pentagon follows: With the advent of a global information society, the US will seek totap the potential of advanced computing capability to enhance its ability toconduct foreign policy decision making. This thesis explores the potential forimproving individual and organizational decision making capabilities by means of artificial intelligence (AI). The use of AI will allow us to take advantage ofthe plethora of information available to obtain an edge over potentialadversaries. Another purpose of this thesis is to give guidance to the softwarecommunity as to what policymakers will need in order to improve future decisionmaking processes. The third purpose is to encourage government and privatesector decision makers to allocate adequate resources to actualize the potential of AI. The method of analysis this thesis uses is to examine US foreign policydecision making on the cognitive or individual, group, and organizationallevels. Using the Cuban Missile Crisis and the Yom Kippur War as test beds forcritical analysis, identification of both decision enhancing and impedingfunctions is accomplished. Finally, a counterfactual analytic framework, usingan AI model, tests the likely influence of AI on decision making. The resultssubstantiate the value of AI as both a decision making enhancer and animpediment reducer for the policymaker. Additional conclusions are derived thatimprove the decision making system and its processes by means of introducing anAI capability. ... Read more
