DARPA announces $2B AI initiative
The “AI Next” campaign, announced by DARPA last week, is geared toward moving AI defense applications into a “third wave” of advancement, capable of complex problem-solving. DARPA will be investing $2 billion into AI through a variety of programs, and a core element of this initiative will be “AI Exploration” projects designed to move from proposal to start in three months, and from start to feasibility assessments within 18 months. New funding opportunities will be announced through multiple projects and over multiple years — SSTI members will find these notices in the Funding Supplement. Not a member? Contact Jason Rittenberg (rittenberg@ssti.org | 614.901.1690) to receive funding notices for DARPA, and all of the other federal agencies plus numerous foundations and other project sponsors, in your inbox every week.
