US War Department launches AI Acceleration Strategy to secure American military AI dominance

The US War Department has launched an AI Acceleration Strategy to secure American military AI dominance by transforming into an “AI-first” force that integrates frontier technology across all combat domains. Mandated by President Trump and led by Secretary Pete Hegseth, this initiative adopts a wartime pace to eliminate bureaucratic hurdles and deploy three million personnel-strong capabilities focused on warfighting, intelligence, and enterprise operations. At the heart of the strategy are seven “Pace-Setting Projects,” such as Swarm Forge and GenAI.mil, which leverage high-level compute infrastructure and partnerships with industry leaders like Google and xAI across all domains from the Pentagon to the tactical edge. Other key initiatives include establishing a unified innovation ecosystem under a single Chief Technology Officer, investing heavily in AI compute infrastructure, and aggressively recruiting top tech talent to ensure the US remains the world’s leading AI-enabled fighting force.
