Navy Pushes AI from Experiments to Everyday Warfighting Functions
Christopher Page, Deputy Director, OPNAV N2N6Q
The Department of the Navy is using AI across a range of mission areas. In the intelligence domain, the service is moving AI beyond experimental phases and integrating trustworthy AI into all warfighting functions, Christopher Page, deputy director of OPNAV’s Intelligence Division, said on AI GovCast.
Page said data quality depends on agreed-upon terms for modeling adversary and friendly forces. For AI implementation to be effective, he said, the Navy must adhere to a common taxonomy and lexicon, noting that “a cruiser needs to be a cruiser, a rowboat needs to be a rowboat.”
He added that the ultimate goal of the Navy’s digital transformation is a hybrid fleet. The future force will feature expanded AI use across the department, autonomous systems that require less bandwidth, and integrated operations between manned and unmanned platforms.
