In a world increasingly shaped by technology, a big question on everyone's mind is: what is the future of my job in the age of artificial intelligence and robotics? In our sixth episode, host Julian Raheema tackles this question with special guest Dr. Henrick Christensen, a leading expert in robotics. Dr. Christensen offers a nuanced look at the complex role of A.I. and robotics in the modern workforce and beyond. While he suggests that robots may create jobs, Dr. Christensen also explores a future where A.I. becomes a powerful tool, handling initial drafts in fields like art and writing, leaving the more nuanced and creative work for humans. This shift, he argues, will not only improve our quality of life but also keep humans out of...
A Naval Information Warfare Center (NIWC) Pacific AI program has been selected by a coalition of academic and industry leaders to pioneer the development of a new generation of American-made microchips that merge electronics and photonics. Following a summit at the University of Arizona, the initiative aims to create processors with drastically reduced power consumption and heat, making advanced AI feasible for resource-constrained military...
Training and maintenance procedures for Overmatch systems adapt as the capabilities themselves adapt to changing needs. The fielding team provides hands-on and virtual training options, and self-paced training modules are available online via the Catalog of Navy Training Courses (CANTRAC).
The U.S. Navy’s Program Executive Office for Digital and Enterprise Services has awarded Joint Warfighting Capability Cloud task orders to Google Public Sector and Oracle America to expand the Department of the Navy’s cloud computing portfolio. The agreements, managed through the Neptune Cloud Management Office, will add Google Cloud Platform and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure landing zones aimed at improving interoperability, bolstering...
SAN DIEGO - Scientists at Naval Information Warfare Center (NIWC) Pacific are advancing navigation technology through quantum-enhanced fiber optic gyroscopes (FOGs). Their research focuses on mitigating noise and enhancing photon flux in quantum FOGs to achieve unparalleled angular rotation sensitivity, vital for naval navigation and operational superiority, particularly in GPS-denied environments. Led by Joanna Ptasinski, NIWC Pacific’s...
