USMC Theater: Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning DevOps at MCTSSA (Room USMC Theater, Hall C)

The prevalence of machine learning (ML) applications has surged, as inexpensive compute and massive quantities of data have merged. With the formation of the Joint Artificial Intelligence Center and service level AI institutes, the DoD is looking to rapidly increase its exploration and use of machine learning to satisfy defense problems. MCTSSA is in the process of establishing a Tactical AI Cell in order to create an AI knowledgeable workforce, develop ML applications for tactical users, satisfy AI related requests for information, provide AI systems support for users in the fleet Marine Corps and provide test and evaluation for ML applications as they are introduced into the Marine Corps Enterprise Networks. Accordingly, MCTSSA seeks to identify optimal ML training opportunities, compute resources, relevant mature applications and to contract subject matter expertise.
