WEBVTT 00:03.680 --> 00:06.579 Here , conflict is gonna be faster than 00:06.590 --> 00:09.409 we can ever imagine . It's really about 00:09.420 --> 00:11.649 moving information around quickly 00:11.659 --> 00:14.340 making decisions in , in split second 00:14.350 --> 00:16.909 moments and a human cannot make 00:16.920 --> 00:18.031 decisions . I found 00:23.440 --> 00:25.979 A I and warfare are writ large . So 00:25.989 --> 00:28.229 what is A I going to buy us as a 00:28.239 --> 00:30.350 country as a nation investing in it ? 00:30.739 --> 00:32.683 Well , one it helps us with better 00:32.683 --> 00:34.739 decision making . The other thing is 00:34.739 --> 00:36.628 speed . The third thing really is 00:36.628 --> 00:39.689 helping us do more with less . Our 00:39.700 --> 00:41.700 digital systems are generating more 00:41.700 --> 00:44.240 information every day . The ability for 00:44.250 --> 00:46.959 humans to keep up with that information 00:46.970 --> 00:49.759 is um becoming non existent . We , we 00:49.770 --> 00:52.860 can't , for example , video feeds from 00:52.869 --> 00:56.040 uh various drones , you know , a human , 00:56.599 --> 00:58.766 you normally would sit there and watch 00:58.766 --> 01:00.655 that all day every day . But at a 01:00.655 --> 01:02.710 certain point , you become saturated 01:02.710 --> 01:04.877 and you don't have enough humans to do 01:04.877 --> 01:04.169 that . So you have to rely on the 01:04.180 --> 01:05.180 machine . 01:08.239 --> 01:10.889 Thank you for Sony Atlantic is really 01:10.900 --> 01:13.122 exploring A I in three different ways . 01:13.122 --> 01:15.233 One is where we've always invested in 01:15.233 --> 01:17.400 natural language processing , which is 01:17.400 --> 01:19.622 a subfield of artificial intelligence . 01:19.622 --> 01:21.233 The second is really tied to 01:21.233 --> 01:23.529 electromagnetic spectrum . So 01:23.540 --> 01:26.790 understanding how we can both protect 01:26.800 --> 01:29.160 our systems and dominate other systems 01:29.169 --> 01:31.280 in that , in that domain . Again , at 01:31.280 --> 01:33.502 speed , these are things that are going 01:33.502 --> 01:35.836 to happen faster than a human can do it . 01:35.836 --> 01:37.891 So we have to rely on algorithm . Uh 01:37.891 --> 01:40.002 And the last thing is really decision 01:40.002 --> 01:42.225 support , decision advantage , we might 01:42.225 --> 01:44.391 want to call it . But how are we going 01:44.391 --> 01:46.447 to use these algorithms ? How are we 01:46.447 --> 01:48.447 going to apply them to our decision 01:48.447 --> 01:51.830 making processes ? So we are working 01:51.839 --> 01:53.617 directly for the chief of naval 01:53.617 --> 01:57.059 operations to develop a dashboard . We 01:57.069 --> 02:00.470 are using that to display the combatant 02:00.480 --> 02:03.760 fuel that is on board ships worldwide 02:04.180 --> 02:06.402 to allow for decision making purposes . 02:07.459 --> 02:09.515 So the A I capabilities for the fuel 02:09.515 --> 02:11.979 executive dashboard uh were related 02:11.988 --> 02:14.210 around message traffic . The commanders 02:14.210 --> 02:16.377 task forces around the world . They're 02:16.377 --> 02:18.432 using these naval messages right now 02:18.432 --> 02:20.432 and they are manually parsing these 02:20.432 --> 02:22.544 messages and it's taking them roughly 02:22.544 --> 02:24.544 around four hours a day . The fuels 02:24.544 --> 02:26.544 executive dashboard will allow them 02:26.544 --> 02:29.940 that automatic feed of data in . So 02:29.949 --> 02:32.539 imagine a fuels officer getting up 02:32.550 --> 02:34.839 really early in the morning , maybe 02:34.850 --> 02:37.072 seventh fleet . Third fleet comes in in 02:37.072 --> 02:39.660 the morning and pulls up the dashboard 02:39.669 --> 02:42.860 and within his area of operation , he 02:42.869 --> 02:46.419 has a Refueler and three ships that he 02:46.429 --> 02:48.262 has to make a decision on . He's 02:48.262 --> 02:50.262 looking at the mission set from our 02:50.262 --> 02:52.373 navy Combatants and then he's looking 02:52.373 --> 02:54.485 at those refueling assets that he may 02:54.485 --> 02:56.540 have . He needs to see the amount of 02:56.540 --> 02:56.500 fuel , the type of fuel that they have 02:56.740 --> 02:58.960 where they're located and then how he 02:58.970 --> 03:01.910 can join those two forces together . He 03:01.919 --> 03:04.559 can use that data to make a data 03:04.570 --> 03:08.360 informed decision that I need to place 03:08.580 --> 03:10.929 my Refueler in a certain position , 03:10.940 --> 03:13.089 which would allow me to optimize the 03:13.100 --> 03:15.267 refueling points for those three ships 03:15.520 --> 03:18.630 where before he wouldn't have the exact 03:18.710 --> 03:21.089 information at , at his hand and he 03:21.100 --> 03:23.100 would have to go comb through those 03:23.100 --> 03:26.820 naval messages manually . So the 03:26.830 --> 03:29.300 dashboard is actually , I would say 03:29.309 --> 03:32.240 honestly a small piece of the overall 03:32.250 --> 03:34.860 scope . The major scope and the major 03:34.869 --> 03:37.179 effort was the data engineering behind 03:37.190 --> 03:39.630 getting that data that we've built our 03:39.639 --> 03:41.750 natural language , processing regular 03:41.750 --> 03:43.861 expression scripts to extract the few 03:43.861 --> 03:46.083 information that we then publish on the 03:46.083 --> 03:48.195 dashboard . It allows the war fighter 03:48.195 --> 03:50.619 to save time and refocus their time and 03:50.630 --> 03:52.741 efforts on the mission that they have 03:52.741 --> 03:56.139 at hand to make true decisions that are 03:56.149 --> 03:58.260 needed by a human versus a computer . 04:05.250 --> 04:08.100 Please . B And normally you , you think 04:08.110 --> 04:10.332 about engineers and scientists , it's , 04:10.332 --> 04:12.860 it's , it's very like pigeonholed into 04:13.100 --> 04:15.440 uh usually a male dominated field , but 04:15.449 --> 04:17.560 this is , is accessible to everyone . 04:17.560 --> 04:19.750 So we're able to pull talent from a 04:19.760 --> 04:21.593 variety of different areas and a 04:21.593 --> 04:23.704 variety of different backgrounds . So 04:23.704 --> 04:25.427 having that diversity in those 04:25.427 --> 04:27.760 background , especially the backgrounds , 04:27.760 --> 04:29.760 the community you come from how you 04:29.760 --> 04:29.179 interact with the world . It is very 04:29.320 --> 04:31.542 important , especially with A I because 04:31.542 --> 04:34.230 A I is about hu humanity really , it's 04:34.239 --> 04:37.179 about having a machine pretend to be a 04:37.190 --> 04:40.769 human almost . And so you want to have 04:40.779 --> 04:43.250 the machine being built , being applied 04:43.260 --> 04:45.320 from a people of a variety of 04:45.329 --> 04:47.730 backgrounds so that it is responsible 04:47.739 --> 04:49.790 so that it doesn't have biases . 04:52.160 --> 04:55.209 It's easy to not realize how much A I 04:55.220 --> 04:57.890 really impacts our lives from day to 04:57.899 --> 05:01.559 day , how much algorithms and data is 05:01.570 --> 05:03.514 already impacting our lives . It's 05:03.514 --> 05:05.626 telling you what search results might 05:05.626 --> 05:07.737 be important to you . It's using your 05:07.737 --> 05:09.848 information about your preferences to 05:09.848 --> 05:13.570 deliver specific search results . So 05:13.579 --> 05:16.730 what excites me most about A I is that 05:16.739 --> 05:20.540 we a population or as an organization 05:20.549 --> 05:22.716 have never generated more data than we 05:22.720 --> 05:24.720 are now . And in the future , we're 05:24.720 --> 05:26.998 going to be generating a lot more data . 05:26.998 --> 05:29.164 So what A I is going to allow us to do 05:29.164 --> 05:31.331 is to cut through the noise and really 05:31.331 --> 05:33.442 see the data points that are gonna be 05:33.442 --> 05:33.100 of interest and allow us to provide 05:33.109 --> 05:35.387 decision advantage to our war fighters . 05:35.387 --> 05:37.498 Artificial intelligence is a critical 05:37.498 --> 05:39.498 competitive advantage in any future 05:39.498 --> 05:39.929 conflict .
