How might the United States Space Force and United States Navy introduce commercial capabilities to innovate operational mission environments with Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning?
Machine Learning is the capability of a machine to learn and imitate intelligent human behavior. Machine learning is a subset of Artificial Intelligence that is fixated on information systems that learn, without being specifically programmed to do so.
From the DoD perspective, artificial intelligence is likely to enhance task automation and decision support that will enable US Guardians, Sailors, Airman, Soldiers and Marines to defend our nation. Specifically, the descriptive, predictive, and prescriptive functions of machine learning can catalyze day-to-day operations and training by properly equipping the USSF and USN with leading edge technologies.
Domestic solutions, with commercial market viability, are desired across a wide array of relevant technologies. Mature solutions may have demonstration opportunities in training exercises with operational users.

The Chief of Space Operations Planning Guidance states that: “We will make every effort to train in realistic, contested conditions … In both competition and conflict adversaries will seek to impose fog and friction through degraded systems, compromised networks, false information, and disrupted communications. We will develop and acquire high fidelity simulators, virtual and augmented reality, and artificial intelligence to improvise war-fighting proficiency against a thinking, reacting adversary and foster the critical thinking and decision-making skills required in combat.”
Presidential Executive Order 13859; Maintaining American Leadership in Artificial Intelligence states that:
Continued American leadership in AI is of paramount importance to maintaining the economic and national security of the United States and to shaping the global evolution of AI in a manner consistent with our Nation’s values, policies, and priorities.
Promote sustained investment in AI R&D in collaboration with industry, academia, international partners and allies, and other non-Federal entities to generate technological breakthroughs in AI and related technologies and to rapidly transition those breakthroughs into capabilities that contribute to our economic and national security.
