Infrared AI Camera Proposed to Scan Earth's Skies For Signs of Alien Visitors

"Purpose-built future sensors for UAP detection should be designed to adjust on millisecond timescales to aid better detection. In lockstep, alert systems should detect and share transient information quickly and uniformly… Multisensor platforms are important for providing a complete picture of a UAP event. An object's motion should be recorded, as well as its shape (imaging data), color (multispectra or hyperspectral data) and any sounds and other characteristics."

Space Force continues expansion of commercial surveillance, data analytics program

After completing a successful pilot period, the Space Force is scaling its Tactical Surveillance, Reconnaissance and Tracking (TacSRT) program to enable more combatant commands to leverage space-based commercial imagery and analytical products.

Generative AI is learning to spy for the US military

For much of last year, about 2,500 US service members from the 15th Marine Expeditionary Unit sailed aboard three ships throughout the Pacific, conducting training exercises in the waters off South Korea, the Philippines, India, and Indonesia. At the same time, onboard the ships, an experiment was unfolding: The Marines in the unit responsible for sorting through foreign intelligence and making their superiors aware of possible local threats were for the first time using generative AI to do it, testing a leading AI tool the Pentagon has been funding.

Constantly on defense: Professors discuss data preservation, integrity under Trump

During the panel, former White House tech advisor Suresh Venkatasubramanian — interim director of the DSI and director of the Center for Technological Responsibility, Re-imagination and Redesign — outlined how the federal administration’s approach to data sets has diverged from that of previous administrations. According to Venkatasubramanian, who is also a professor of data science and computer science, the Trump administration has attempted to “get rid of” data that focuses on government operations while maintaining access to data that is “trying to surveil” the American population.
