The Defense Department has signed an agreement with the Start-up scale AI to use artificial intelligence for military planning and operation, marking the latest inclusion of emerging tech in its workflow in Pentagon.
The flagship program, called Thunderforge, will integrate AI “agents” into military workflow, so that for military leaders to make the process of making earlier decisions and speeding up, Scale AI. Announced Wednesday.
Thunderform micros. Focusing on the development and deployment of AI -powered technology with the help of large -language model systems of theft. The technology of scale AI will also be included in the modeling and simulation infrastructure of the weapons manufacturer Enduril to help with mission planning, the company said.
This agreement was given by the Pentagon Defense Innovation Unit, which aims to adopt commercial technology in the military for national security and efficiency.
Currently, military planning processes “decades -old technology and methods,” Brice Goodman, based on the lead and contractor of Diu’s Thunderforge Program, Said in the blog post.
This creates a basic “amidst our ability to motion and respond to modern war”, “said Goodman.
According to the DIU, the system is the first U.S. to support planning, campaign development, resource allocation and assessments. The Indo-Pacific Command and the US European command will be deployed. It will then be scaled on combat commands.
“Our AI solutions will change the process of today’s military operating and modernize American defense,” said Alexander Wang, founder and CEO of Scale AI, in a statement. “By working together with the DU, the fighter commands and our industry partners, we will lead a joint force to unite AI in operational decision.”
Pentagon has tried to increase the integration of AI in military systems over the past few years, especially when it comes to large quantities of unified and acting on data.
Pentagon has carried forward a new strategy, especially when it comes to drone using AI to defend drone attacks. Nevertheless, observers told The Hill last year that the defense industry faces a long way to enhance new and emerging technologies on the field.
