“Raytheon and C3.ai represent key partners for the U.S. Air
Force, and specifically the Rapid Sustainment Office, in realizing
the vision of harnessing AI to transform the military into a
digital organization,” said Nathan Parker, deputy program executive
officer for the Air Force Rapid Sustainment Office. “Fulfilling
this vision of broad implementation requires identifying applicable
use cases for AI across the Air Force, rapidly piloting solutions,
and scaling successes across our enterprise to accelerate the
transformation.”
AI is rapidly transforming the nature of warfare, and the
military is actively working toward adopting this critical new
technology.
“The military and intelligence community have access to more
data now than any time in history, but it’s more than they’re able
to make quick use of,” said David Appel, vice president of Defense
& Civil Solutions at Space & C2 Systems for RI&S.
“Artificial intelligence can be used to help them make sense of
that data, which will allow them to make smarter decisions faster
on the battlefield. And that’s just one of the benefits.”
The alliance pairs Raytheon Intelligence & Space’s expertise
in aerospace and defense with C3.ai’s proven AI development
abilities and applications to fast-track the delivery of these new
tools.
“Raytheon and C3.ai are driven by similar purposes: Anticipating
and solving our customers’ most difficult problems,” said Thomas M.
Siebel, CEO of C3.ai. “Together, we offer an end-to-end enterprise
AI platform and mission-tailored applications that will
dramatically reduce cost and risk, accelerate adoption and
deployment of AI solutions, and scale the impact of AI across any
organization.”
