Artificial intelligence could be a force multiplier in logistics and sustainment for managing Air Force systems and technology, but there's no magic wand that can sprinkle AI dust to magically modernize legacy systems, vendors said.
Angela Shefield, Director of AI Programs at SAIC, and retired Air Force Col. John "BigDogg" Rhone, SAIC's C5ISR Programs Lead, explain how artificial intelligence and machine learning are evolving beyond bespoke applications and how SAIC is helping to enable next-generation AI capabilities for critical problem ...
This summer, we witnessed an important milestone in the history of human activity in space: on July 11, the first generative AI tool in space began operation. The tool, a large language model (LLM), aims to assist astronauts aboard the International Space Station (ISS) as ...
A pair of chief information officers for Pentagon organizations argued for a more practical approach to artificial intelligence focused on things like streamlining organizational tasks across the Defense Department.
The Air Force will likely award a contract or contracts for the first increment of Collaborative Combat Aircraft in late September or early October, sources familiar with the program said. It’s not yet been decided if the Air Force will carry one or both of ...
The Air Force’s software tools for tracking pilot skills are decades out-of-date and often rely on subjective assessments, which hinders combat readiness and wastes scarce training resources, a former F-15E fighter pilot said.
The artificial intelligence that controlled the F-16 on which Air Force Secretary Frank Kendall flew last week was evenly matched in dogfights against a human pilot with more than 2,000 flight hours, Kendall said May 8, as he made the case that autonomy will become ...
