美国C4ISRNET网4月2日报道

美国国防部联合人工智能中心发布需求征询建议公告，要求企业尤其是初创企业为国防部AI数据准备就绪服务计划提供解决方案，这也标志着该中心定位从产品研发机构向AI就绪服务机构转型。根据基本采办协议，AI数据服务方案包括数据捕获、分类及建模，以使通过AI更好地获得洞察力。公告称，这项名为“人工智能发展数据就绪（DRAID）服务”采办协议，将有助于国防部和政府部门用户通过便利获得先进的商业服务，来为AI应用准备数据，进而应对AI数据治理面临的复杂技术挑战。数据就绪服务将覆盖AI数据准备整个寿命周期，包括数据摄取、标记，直至建模和训练模型开始。联合人工智能中心公告宣称，“AI数据的质量，决定了最终的AI系统质量”。

Pentagon seeks commercial solutions to get its data ready for AI

WASHINGTON — The Pentagon’s Joint Artificial Intelligence Center is recruiting businesses to help prepare military data for use with AI.

The solicitation released March 31 is a sign of the AI office’s shifting role from product developer to provider of AI readiness services for Defense Department components. The basic ordering agreement would allow those components and federal partners to issue task orders for the work to get data in shape for artificial intelligence — that could include everything from capturing data to sorting it for storage to modeling how employees will use it with AI to get better insights.

The Data Readiness for Artificial Intelligence Development (DRAID) Services ordering agreement will “help the DoD and Government users prepare data for use in AI applications by providing an easily accessible path to access the cutting-edge commercial services needed to meet the complex technical challenges involved in preparing data for AI,” the solicitation read.

“The services addressed by the DRAID span the entire AI data preparation lifecycle, from data ingestion, through labeling, right up to before model training begins,” an April 1 blog post from the JAIC states. “Through access to these services, the DoD will be positioned to effectively prepare AI data to support the full range of AI activities across the DoD and do so in a responsible manner.”
