Chen Li

Chen Li is a Chinese researcher affiliated with the Air Force Early Warning Academy in Wuhan, specializing in the analysis of unidentified air conditions, or UAPs/UFOs, within China's military framework. He highlighted the rapid increase in sightings from military radar, pilots, police, and civilians, overwhelming human analysts and posing challenges to air defense security in a 2019 report to Beijing scientists. To address this, Chen advocated for artificial intelligence, noting its ability to 'think outside the box' by correlating data across times, locations, behaviors, designs, materials, and contexts like political events or weather, to discern origins such as hostile aircraft, drones, or natural phenomena. His work aligns with People's Liberation Army efforts using national databases for UAP tracking. As of 2025 reports, Chen continues contributing to AI-driven UAP analysis amid rising sightings.
