[HIGHLIGHTS] The book and the embarrassment: this is how the identity of the commander of unit 8200 was revealed - voila! technology

Brigadier General Yossi Shariel is the commander of Unit 8200 in the Intelligence Corps. He wrote a book about artificial intelligence on the battlefield in 2021.

It is not clear what possessed the officer holding one of the most sensitive positions in Israel to write a book and publish it on Amazon, while still in active service. The book was written with the approval and knowledge of the military system, according to an IDF spokesperson. It's not clear if the book was submitted for approval by the censors and the security commissioner.
