美国防部人工智能顶层管理机构联合人工智能中心（JAIC）正在转移工作重心，希望2021年成为成为军事部门AI应用的核心中枢。
国防部首席信息官达纳·迪西说：“当JAIC一词被上下各级交口称赞，成为人们人们的口头禅、日常生活必需时，才可以说JAIC成功了。”
其核心重点是由JAIC通过授予德勤公司1.06亿美元鼓励金创建的中央储备库“联合共同基金”。
各军种可以通过该平台获取开发人工智能计划所需设备、模型和其他软件，成为人们获取相关数据的核心，使JAIC成为向军种提供分类、管理和算法存储及编目的中心。
JAIC还将提供“软件服务”，如为试验、评估和合同提供支持。
How the Defense Department wants to measure the success of its AI hub
The Pentagon’s top artificial intelligence office, called the Joint Artificial Intelligence Center, is shifting its focus and wants 2021 to be the year that it becomes the central repository for military components looking to use AI.
“How will we know when JAIC is successful? It’s when the term JAIC is used in conversations at all levels,” DoD CIO Dana Deasy said in late November on a FedScoop webinar. “[It’s] when people will say, ‘Was that data run through JAIC? Did those algorithms get pushed out today through JAIC? Did you guys go to JAIC and put that in the library? Did you go and look at the integration solutions from JAIC?’”
“The term — that word JAIC — starts to get used in the vernacular of people’s day-to-day conversations, then that all feels like the original vision that we put in place for Jake is really starting to be brought to life.”
The cornerstone to that effort, according to Deasy and JAIC Director Lt. Gen. Michael Groen, is the Joint Common Foundation, a central repository being built by the JAIC through a $106 million award to Deloitte. Services can use that platform to get tools, models and other software to develop artificial intelligence programs.
The goal is for JCF to be a place where personnel can bring their data, and the JAIC can provide services such as labeling, curation and eventually, algorithm storage and cataloging, Groen said.
“One of the things we’ve discovered is the problems across the department that we can solve through AI, they cluster — meaning you can … reuse algorithms across different applications,” he said.
The JAIC also will provide “soft services,” such as assistance with test and evaluation and contracts.
“A lot of cases, especially some of our more advanced partners, all they need is like access to a contract vehicle. They don’t really need anything else, so we can do that for them,” Groen said.
