The Air Force and Space Force last week <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/artificial-intelligence\/2024\/06\/10\/air-force-space-force-unveil-tool-for-ai-experimentation\/\" target=\"_blank\">unveiled their own experimental tool<\/a> \u2014 the Non-classified Internet Protocol Generative Pre-Training Transformer, or NIPRGPT. And in 2023, the Navy <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/industry\/2023\/06\/13\/meet-amelia-the-us-navys-conversational-ai-tech-support-tool\/\" target=\"_blank\">rolled out a conversational AI program called Amelia<\/a> that sailors could use to troubleshoot problems or provide tech support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Swanson said she\u2019s optimistic about the potential for generative AI, especially for laborious specialties like contract writing and policy where automation could release some strain on the Army\u2019s workforce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIn the area of contracts and in the area of policy, I think there\u2019s a huge return on investment for us,\u201d she said. \u201cMight [AI] one day be able to write a contract? We hope so. But we\u2019ve got to pilot and test it and make sure everybody\u2019s comfortable with it first.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The large language model the service will use for the effort is different from systems like ChatGPT, Swanson said, because it is trained on Army data. It will also provide citations that indicate where the data it provides originated, a feature that will help the service fact-check that information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The pilot is part of a broader effort within the Army to identify both the pitfalls and the opportunities that come with widely adopting AI tools. In March, the service announced a 100-day plan focused on reducing the risk associated with integrating AI algorithms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As part of that exercise, Swanson said, the Army reviewed its spending on AI research and found that testing and security are the two biggest gaps toward fielding these tools more broadly. The service also identified 32 risks and 66 mitigations it can implement to reduce their impact. Further, it created a generative AI policy that it will apply to the pilot in order to set parameters for the effort. That policy includes a requirement that there be a \u201chuman in the loop.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The generative AI pilot will lead into the next phase of the effort \u2014 a 16-month focus on how to use the technology operationally. Findings from that work will inform the Army\u2019s budget for fiscal 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cSo the 100 day plan is setting the conditions \u2014 where are we at \u2014 and then the 500 day plan is really about operationalizing it,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Florent Groberg, vice president of strategy and optimization at private investment firm AE Industrial partners, said that as the Army moves through these review processes and experiments with AI, it should be transparent with industry about what it wants and then move quickly to leverage the tools companies are developing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cTo me, it\u2019s really understanding the framework of what you want to accomplish,\u201d he said during the same panel with Swanson. \u201cPut some boundaries out there and then go do it.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The pilot project is part of a broader
