For example, Agency briefers in the Data Science and Artificial Intelligence portion of the event discussed the current state and future direction of the Agency's data science and artificial intelligence (AI) efforts and explored the Agency's work in using data science and emerging and disruptive technologies for multi-domain operations. Emerging and disruptive technologies like AI are increasingly prevalent, have a profound impact on our daily lives and influence on the way NATO operates.
As NATO's cyber and technological hub, the NCI Agency is always exploring new ways of utilizing these tools to better support NATO's mission and operational needs. During multi-domain operations, there is a larger flow of information shared between the headquarters of all operating domains and environments. As AI-based solutions have the capacity to swiftly and accurately retrieve information from various sources and systems at once, NCI Agency experts are examining use-cases of AI to positively influence the situational awareness of operational headquarters and NATO Commanders.
"TIDE Sprint is a vital link between NATO, industry and academia experts, facilitating collaboration crucial for overcoming modern challenges and driving NATO's digital transformation," said Daniel Sousa, Data Scientist at the NCI Agency.
The discussions and ideas shared at TIDE Sprint 2024 will help NCI Agency experts develop new innovations to further NATO's interoperability and collaborative efforts.
