The Army is \u201call in\u201d on the Department of Defense\u2019s larger efforts to harness the power of artificial intelligence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking before an audience Aug. 22 at TechNet Augusta, Army CIO Lt. Gen. Bruce Crawford said the Army is on board with the larger efforts the department is taking, such as building out the Joint Artificial Intelligence Center and crafting a DoD AI strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DoD\u2019s CIO, Dana Deasy, speaking Aug. 13 at the DoDIIS conference in Omaha, Nebraska, said DoD delivered its AI strategy to Congress, including the plan to stand up the Joint Artificial Intelligence Center (an unclassified version of the strategy will be released later this year).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deasy noted that the center will deliver new AI capabilities and concepts that will support the DoD\u2019s missions and business functions. It will also bring traditional and nontraditional innovators together in a way that\u2019s never been seen before, though Deasy did not provide many details.<\/p>\n\n\n\t
