While the world has always been perilous, he argued, challenges were compounded by the nonstop flow of information, misinformation and disinformation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">AI was a useful tool in helping the US government mitigate this constant stream, Moriarty said, with the ability to uncover the truth and then use it to drive action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He expressed hope AI could help the Defense Department prevent the spread of distorted facts, but acknowledged that, if prevention isn\u2019t possible, containing misinformation and disinformation was a viable outcome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If there\u2019s hesitation about relying on technology to make important decisions, Moriarty argued, people should consider the trust they\u2019ve already placed in machines such as calculators, autopilot systems and software.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Regardless, Moriarity noted adopting AI technology will require a collective Defense Department approach \u2014 a challenging task to implement. He wondered what could realistically bring about the change he believes the department urgently needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIf you look at the nation\u2019s finest hours, it\u2019s typically been on the receiving end of some profoundly negative externality which gave us no choice but to respond to the threat,\u201d Moriarty said. \u201cI think the big challenge upon us now is we recognize the world is increasingly dangerous. Can we actually get ahead, or is the necessary forcing function a terrible event which allows us to just rip out these barriers to innovation and response?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The right conversations are happening, according to Moriarty, but the country needs to move faster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cPeople are singing from the same song sheet and it is the right song,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sean Moriarty, CEO of PrimerAI, said the Defense Department is lagging in its
