Lydia Kostopoulos contends that discussions on the military applications of machine learning have focused more on algorithmic decision-making than on data. However, an algorithm requires data in its processing to make decisions. To help fill this gap regarding military decision-support tools and autonomous weapons systems, Kostopoulos here responds by adressing 1) the data chain, referring to the creation, collection, organization and use of data; 2) ways an adversary can target and undermine data; and 3) key data-related questions those considering the military application of artificial intelligence (AI) may wish to consider.
