Consider what happened today at the UN Security Council:  Bahrain reported that Iran has fired missiles into Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Kuwait, Syria and Jordan, presumably trying to hit US bases, but their system isn't perfect.  (Oddly enough, Israel wasn't on that list (but Syria was (how odd is that?  (I definitely woulda lost that bet.))))  

All seven of those countries also need their version of the golden dome that Israel already has, and has already demonstrated works really well.  All of those countries have cubic buttloads of oil money, and none of them like to see their stuff blown up (imagine that.)  The military (ours and theirs) does not need or want LLMs for command and control of their missile/drone defense systems, it needs a specific-task superintelligent AI system, one that knows nothing of our latest rock stars and political scandals, but everything about missile defense.  Israel is already ahead of the rest of the world in this with their Iron Dome system.  

This limited task SAI isn't all that hard to imagine, for we already have superhuman AI in other specific areas and have had for a long time, such as chess.  What is happening right now is life-or-death chess, playing out in real time, in the skies above Iran's neighbors.
