The Republic of Korean Hanwha Systems and Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) have launched a project to co-develop artificial intelligence technologies to be applied to military weapons. 

A joint research centre has been set up at KAIST which will focus on four tasks by priority; developing an AI-based command system, an AI algorithm for an unmanned sub's navigation, an AI-based aviation training system and an AI-based object-tracking technique. An official from Hanwha Systems said their goal was to complete such developments by the end of the year. 

25 researchers from KAIST will participate in the centre while the defence arm of Hanwha Group will dispatch its researchers in accordance with subjects of research.
