德国军事情报局 MAD 启用 AI 筛查联邦国防军申请人右翼倾向
German Bundeswehr Uses AI to Screen Applicants for Right-Wing Extremism
德国军事情报局 MAD 自今年 7 月起启用自研 AI 系统 uVTP，对所有联邦国防军（Bundeswehr）申请人的网络活动进行筛查，以识别其是否传播、关注或转发右翼极端内容。该系统由 MAD 与一家德国 IT 公司合作开发，已覆盖数万名申请人，其中低三位数候选人因缺乏宪法忠诚度被筛除。
The German military intelligence agency MAD has introduced a specially developed AI system for the first time to identify right-wing extremists among applicants for the Federal Armed Forces (Bundeswehr). According to “Spiegel”, the MAD has been scrutinizing the internet activities of all Bundeswehr applicants since July of this year using the AI software.
This technology, called the Assisted Constitutional Loyalty Check (uVTP), was specially tailored by the intelligence agency in cooperation with a German IT company to meet the specific needs of the MAD. The AI search examines whether applicants themselves propagate extremist content online, follow right-wing accounts, or further disseminate such material.
The magazine reported that tens of thousands of applicants have already been scrutinized by the AI software. A low three-digit number of candidates were filtered out due to a lack of constitutional loyalty. With this software, the MAD, which is responsible for security vetting within the Bundeswehr, is preparing for the expected rapid increase in the number of applicants in the coming years.
