The AI Integration Center
plays a critical role in the
U.S. Army’s transformation process.
The AI Integration Center focuses on accelerating the development and delivery of high quality, AI solutions that are tailored to conform to Army requirements and integrates AI solutions into Army operations. This involves collaborating with stakeholders like defense contractors, academic institutions and military personnel, to ensure the solutions are scalable and meet specific user needs.
Our people and products provide technical skills, knowledge and capabilities that allow leaders to quickly understand the operational environment and improve decision-making. We execute this through three lines of effort that support the Army’s transformation efforts: Workforce Development; AI Integration Activities; and AI Product Development.
The AI Integration Center prioritizes building a technically capable workforce through the AI Scholar and AI Technician programs to develop data scientists, data engineers and AI cloud technicians for the Army. Additionally, it oversees the Data Driven Leadership course at Carnegie Mellon University and the AI 101 course to upskill leaders and everyday AI users.
