Finally a productive use case! Sucks at most stuff but it turns out it's really good at helping kill people. Finally time for these companies to cash in on a tangible application.

The term "kill chain" reduces the slaughter of human beings to an engineering problem. It tacitly admits that modern militaries are murder factories. If we had caught ISIS or a drug cartel speaking and thinking this way, that would be a Fox News headline for months. What a dispiriting bit of jargon. It tells so much more than it says.
AI systems can dramatically speed up the analysis of military intelligence.
This is great as long as nobody cares about whether the slop it vomits out is accurate.
