North Korea says it carried out a test on Saturday of a strategic intermediate-range ballistic missile incorporating artificial intelligence, according to remarks attributed to the sister of leader Kim Jong-un and reported by France 24.
According to North Korean authorities, the new projectile is capable of altering its trajectory at low altitude, a capability presented as made possible by the integration of artificial intelligence technologies into the weapon's guidance system.
If confirmed, this test would mark a new step in North Korea's ballistic missile program, with Pyongyang regularly seeking to demonstrate technological advances in its weapons tests, particularly maneuvering capabilities designed to complicate adversaries' missile defense systems.
North Korea's statements regarding the launch, which according to available information was directed toward the Sea of Japan, could not be independently verified immediately. This type of announcement is part of a series of ballistic tests conducted by Pyongyang in recent years, regularly condemned by its regional neighbors and the United Nations.
