The National Defense Authorization Act headed to President Joe Biden's desk includes provisions to expand the use of artificial intelligence.

Here are some of the AI-related measures in the $858 billion legislation.

WASHINGTON WIZARDS AND CAPITALS ANNOUNCE PLANS TO DITCH DC AND MOVE TO VIRGINIA

The U.S. Cyber Command and Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency will work alongside the Department of Defense's chief information officer and its undersecretary of defense for research and engineering to create a five-year road map for how to incorporate AI into aircraft in the future.

The NDAA will also ask the deputy secretary of defense to establish data management, AI, and digital solutions within the department "for business efficiency and warfighting capabilities intended to accelerate decision advantage." The deputy secretary will also be entrusted with requiring all heads of defense agencies to make their data available and to grow the number of data and AI-focused employees within the Department of Defense.

The State Department will also appoint a new "chief artificial intelligence officer" who will work alongside the department's chief data officer. They'll oversee the use of AI within the department as well as efforts to ensure the agency is sufficiently staffed with experts.

Finally, the newly appointed chief artificial intelligence officer will host internal "bug bounties" and "prize competitions" to test for vulnerabilities in DOD software and to improve its use of AI models. The competitions include evaluating technology designed to detect and identify generative AI images.
