國民黨立委陳菁徽近日訪美期間,前往美國國防科技公司Shield AI參訪,並由共同創辦人暨總裁曾國光(Brandon Tseng)親自接待。曾國光今(2)日在台北媒體簡報會上被問及此事時表示,不論在哪個國家,他都會與不同政黨的政治領袖會面,解答他們對無人機、AI、產業及戰爭的疑問,「因為他們掌握的資訊越充分,在政策、資源配置等方面就越能做出更好的決定」。

曾國光說,Shield AI與荷蘭、希臘、印度、阿拉伯聯合大公國、台灣、日本等國都有合作,各國政治人物普遍希望多了解未來戰爭、無人機與AI,而Shield AI不只被視為思想先驅,也是具備實戰經驗的實務者;至於會談內容,他不願透露細節。

請繼續往下閱讀...

陳菁徽上(9)月27日在臉書發文指出,曾國光是台裔美國人、曾國藩第五代子孫,曾在美國海軍服役7年並具海豹部隊經歷。她指出,從海巡署採購的12架V-BAT,到雷虎在屏東展示搭載Hivemind的海鯊號無人艇,都提升台灣空中、海上偵察情蒐能力;她也在會中邀請Shield AI到高雄參訪、考察合作機會,指高雄有亞灣AIoT產業基礎與港灣、海事應用需求,盼串聯在地企業及學校。

陳菁徽也強調,台灣應逐步建立從維修、軟體調整、技術更新到人員訓練的一條龍在地支援鏈。曾國光今天談到中科院對Hivemind的興趣時則指出,不只台灣,許多國家都不希望在戰時面對新威脅時,還得請美國或Shield AI修改、更新AI模型,而是希望對無人機的AI與自主能力擁有主權,這正是Shield AI與各國及中科院等機構合作的核心,協助對方建立「主權AI」開發能力。

陳菁徽在貼文中提到,國民黨推動通過2400億元無人機條例,條例通過後更要從安全性、交付時程到後勤維護認真審查預算。立法院8月27日三讀通過國民黨版「強化國防自主暨無人載具產業發展條例」,明定6年循年度預算編列2400億元;行政院9月3日通過、待立法院審議的115年度追加預算案中,無人機採購預算約1457億元。

另據本報先前報導,海軍在116年度國防預算編列115至118年共360億元,籌購280架艦載智慧垂直起降型無人機。曾國光對海軍案不予評論,但表示知道有AI垂直起降無人機的預算需求,將是公開競標,Shield AI希望如同參與海巡署標案般「非常公開、公平地競爭」,並自信擁有全球作戰經驗最成熟、能在GPS與通訊遭干擾時運作的第3級(Group 3)情監偵無人機。

It is not appropriate to speculate on intentions based on the position of assistance, but he still hopes that Taiwanese business associations from various places will actively participate.

Taichung City Councilor Lin Chi-feng and others pointed out that from January to August this year, a total of 1,826 cases of drug driving were banned, and the grassroots police officers were only rewarded for their high risks in performing their duties. After requesting the establishment of a substantive reward system and failing to get the mayor's commitment, Lin Qifeng announced that he would donate 100,000 yuan in election expenses subsidies as incentives for drug driving bans.
