Published on November 13, 2022
Artificial intelligence is the department's top technology modernization priority, DOD Chief Information Officer Dana Deasy said yesterday. The new principles lay the foundation for the ethical design, development, deployment and use of AI by DOD he said. "These principles build upon the department's long history of ethical adoption of new technologies," he added.
The Defense Innovation Board spent 15 months developing the principles, and consulted with leading AI and technical experts, as well as with current and former DOD leaders and the American public. Those principles, Deasy noted, apply to the use of AI in both combat and noncombat situations.
