MacAulay-Brown, Inc. (MacB), an Alion company, announced that representatives from its subsidiary, Enlighten IT Consulting, LLC, attended the Second Annual Department of Defense (DoD) Artificial Intelligence (AI) Industry Day on Wednesday, November 28 in Silver Spring, Maryland. DoD AI Industry Day is sponsored by the U.S. Army Research Laboratory (ARL), together with the Joint Artificial Intelligence Center (JAIC). Enlighten's team conducted a live demonstration of its Big Data Platform (BDP) AI capabilities, as well as enhancements to its proprietary Rapid Analytic Deployment Management Framework (RADMF) for government experts. The BDP is a government-owned, cloud-based analytics platform originally developed by Enlighten for the Defense Information Services Agency(DISA). It can be deployed by a DoD mission partner or government contractor in any environment.

In the next 25 years, AI will evolve to the point where it will know more on an intellectual level than any human. In the next 50 or 100 years, an AI might know more than the entire population of the planet put together. At that point, there are serious questions to ask about whether this AI -- which could design and program additional AI programs all on its own, read data from an almost infinite number of data sources, and control almost every connected device on the planet -- will somehow rise in status to become more like a god, something that can write its own bible and draw humans to worship it. Recently, reports surfaced that a controversy-plagued engineer who once worked at Uber has started a new religion. Anthony Levandowski filed paperwork for a nonprofit religious organization called The Way of the Future.
