The first nation to fully incorporate artificial intelligence (AI) into military decision-making will shape the history of the 21st century. That&rsquo;s why it&rsquo;s critical for the United States to lead on AI, and integrate it into large-scale military applications under careful human supervision.
To move the US towards this goal, Scale AI has been awarded a prime contract by the Defense Innovation Unit (DIU) for Thunderforge. This is the Department of Defense&rsquo;s (DoD&rsquo;s) flagship program to leverage AI for US military planning and operations. It&rsquo;s another big step towards bringing our AI technology and expertise to the government.
<blockquote>
"Scale AI is honored to lead Thunderforge. Our AI solutions will transform today&rsquo;s military operating process and modernize American defense. Working together with DIU, Combatant Commands, and our industry partners, we will lead the Joint Force in integrating AI into operational decision-making. DIU&rsquo;s enhanced speed will provide our nation&rsquo;s military leaders with the greatest technological advantage." &ndash;&nbsp; Alexandr Wang, Founder and CEO, Scale AI.

Thunderforge marks the DoD&rsquo;s first foray into integrating AI agents in and across military workflows to provide advanced decision-making support systems for military leaders.&nbsp;
Our team of global technology partners &ndash; including Anduril and Microsoft&ndash; will develop and deploy AI-powered solutions and custom agentic workflows (always under human oversight) to our mission partners initially at Indo-Pacific Command (INDOPACOM) and European Command (EUCOM). Anduril is integrating Scale AI&rsquo;s LLM capability into its Lattice advanced modeling and simulation infrastructure to enhance mission planning. Microsoft is providing state of the art LLM technology to enable a leading edge, multimodal solution.
This contract is a significant milestone in military advancement. The incorporation of AI will push the country ahead through a combination of technology and critical human judgment. <a href="https://scale.com/agentic-warfare">Click here</a> to learn more.
