The Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the Department of the Air Force are creating state-of-the-art, end-to-end, sustainable pipelines for Artificial Intelligence technology to give the United States a competitive advantage in the defense and civilian sectors.

The AI Accelerator is the only unit dedicated to AI in the Department of Defense. Their core mission focus areas are conducting research, building partnerships, influencing policy and providing education to the entirety of the DAF. The AIA leverages universities, small businesses, traditional defense, and non-traditional commercial ventures, collaborating with the Air Force and Space Force, to develop and ensure the ethical use of AI technologies for society and the nation.
