This article details an experiment at the U.S. Army Command and General Staff College (CGSC) testing the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) agents, built on the Palantir Vantage platform, into Step 2 (Mission Analysis) of the Military Decision-Making Process (MDMP). A traditional 14-student human staff was compared against a two-student AI-augmented team using specialized AI personas (Overall, IPOE, Combined, and MA Brief agents) to generate running estimates, Intelligence Preparation of the Operational Environment (IPOE) products, problem/mission statements, and other key outputs.
The experiment concludes that AI serves as a powerful cognitive partner for accelerating Mission Analysis, particularly in text-heavy tasks and filling expertise shortfalls, but requires human validation for realism, graphics, and final judgment to enhance commander decision-making in modern warfare.
