In May 2026, the Department of War announced expanded agreements with major tech firms including SpaceX, OpenAI, and Google, to deploy advanced AI projects on classified networks, despite GenAI.mil's early rollout challenges. The AI tool suite, now used by 1.3 million personnel across five military branches, faced initial confusion and concerns regarding security, inadequate training, and potential autonomous decision-making. Worries intensified over xAI's Grok chatbot's perceived bias and Anthropic's lawsuit after resisting deployment for autonomous lethal warfare or mass surveillance. Conversely, Google's contract explicitly prohibits such uses without human oversight. Operation Epic Fury demonstrated AI's utility in sifting vast data for target identification, highlighting its potential to free personnel and enhance U.S. military supremacy in an increasingly unstable global environment.
