Title: NATO Inks Deal With Palantir For Maven AI System

Link: https://tech.slashdot.org/story/25/04/14/1917...

An anonymous reader quotes a report from DefenseScoop: NATO announced Monday
that it has awarded a contract to Palantir to adopt its Maven Smart System
for artificial intelligence-enabled battlefield operations. Through the
contract, which was finalized March 25, the NATO Communications and
Information Agency (NCIA) plans to use a version of the AI system -- Maven
Smart System NATO -- to support the transatlantic military organization's
Allied Command Operations strategic command. NATO plans to use the system to
provide "a common data-enabled warfighting capability to the Alliance,
through a wide range of AI applications -- from large language models (LLMs)
to generative and machine learning," it said in a release, ultimately
enhancing "intelligence fusion and targeting, battlespace awareness and
planning, and accelerated decision-making." [...] NATO's Allied Command
Operations will begin using Maven within the next 30 days, the organization
said Monday, adding that it hopes that using it will accelerate further
adoption of emerging AI capabilities. Palantir said the contract "was one of
the most expeditious in [its] history, taking only six months from outlining
the requirement to acquiring the system."
