International data and analytics company GlobalData has forecast that the global defence artificial intelligence (AI) market will expand dramatically by the end of this decade. And that a key part of the global AI market environment during this period will be what the company describes as an escalating “tech war” between the US and China. The worldwide defence AI market was worth $81.3-billion last year. The company predicted, in its new 'Artificial Intelligence in Defence' report, that it would be worth $908.7-billion in 2030, which would amount to a compound annual growth rate of 35.2%.
