The implementation of artificial intelligence-based systems into the armed forces creates new capabilities that significantly reduce the burden of previously used mechanisms. The opportunities for the armed forces are indicated, which result from the use of artificial intelligence. At the same time, the challenges posed by the use of this advanced technology are highlighted. The aim of the article is to present the potential of implementing artificial intelligence for military purposes and compare it with the content generated by Chat GPT during the interview, in response to questions about various areas of artificial intelligence absorption for military purposes.In addition, the author proposed a scale of artificial intelligence autonomy and defined three fundamental areas, which have to be mastered in order to freely use artificial intelligence without worrying about the risk of undesirable action.The analytical method was used to distinguish areas of application of artificial intelligence for the needs of the army and indicate potential directions of its implementation. Synthesis was employed to propose a scale of system autonomy in relation to human decisions. Expert interview method was applied to examine how artificial intelligence assesses its own potential for implementation for the needs of the army.The analysis conducted by the author, as well as the indications of the artificial intelligence itself, point many benefits of implementing artificial intelligence into the armed forces. At the same time, one has to be aware of the many threats associated with the vulnerabilities this solution currently creates. In conclusions it is indicated that the content generated by artificial intelligence during the interview, regarding its own use for the army, is advanced; and Chat GPT can be a valuable information tool, as one of the important sources in building situational awareness
