ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Despite dramatic advance in AI and compute power, the Pentagon still largely operates as an organization driven by spreadsheets and PowerPoint. To become a truly data-centric force, the U.S. military services must move beyond this to adopt advanced data analytics and AI tools for making critical decisions with speed and accuracy. Govini is one of the top commercial entities leading that charge, and its CEO, Tara Murphy Dougherty, joins CTRL + ALT + DEFENSE this week to discuss why the U.S. must move decisively and without hesitation into this new era, or risk putting itself in a losing position against its top adversaries.
