From eWeek: The Pentagon has selected Google’s Gemini AI platform to deliver productivity and automation tools to its 3 million civilian and military employees.
Dubbed GenAI.mil, the new platform was initially greeted with suspicion by Pentagon employees when it appeared on their computers on Monday. An email from Secretary of War Pete Hegseth helped quell cybersecurity concerns and encouraged all staff to use it.
“I am pleased to introduce GenAI.mil, a secure generative AI platform for every member of the Department of War,” Hegseth wrote in the email. “It is live today and available on the desktops of all military personnel, civilians and contractors. With this launch, we are taking a giant step toward mass AI adoption across the department. This tool marks the beginning of a new era, where every member of our workforce can be more efficient and impactful.”
