Plain-English Summary

The Department of Defense would be required to study how using artificial intelligence affects soldiers' ability to perform their jobs, maintain their skills, and stay prepared for combat situations. The assessment would examine whether AI tools help or hurt military readiness and whether troops might lose important skills by relying too heavily on automated systems. This would help military leaders understand the real-world impacts of bringing AI technology into combat operations and training.
