National Threat to Resilience
The study spearheaded by Bistra Dilkina leverages artificial intelligence (AI) to improve disaster responses in the United States. The Critical Infrastructure Resilience Institute (CIRI) (n.d.) indicates that this research explores the complex algorithms that stakeholders can integrate into routine operations to inform their planning and deliberate responses to the nation’s diverse natural and artificial catastrophes. Such approaches highlight Homeland Security’s progressive consideration of technological advancements as a weapon for boosting national resilience.
The highlighted study directly strengthens the United States’ capacity to protect its critical infrastructures (CI). According to Fisher et al. (2018), resilience in the U.S. emphasizes the systematic methods of protecting CI from damage, designing appropriate procedures, planning, determining vulnerabilities, and hardening systems. Researchers such as Chapman (2023) acknowledge the direct benefit arising from AI in predicting, guiding preventative measures, and informing response strategies after disasters. Kuglitsch et al. (2022) also support this observation by underscoring AI’s capacity to collect information from topographically unreachable regions, leading to visualization of events and alerts about looming natural disasters. Thus, Bistra Dilkina’s emphasis on using AI-based data and other techniques to improve human decisions for disaster vigilance and management bolsters it...
