WASHINGTON — Special Operations Command Pacific is running its first ever artificial intelligence boot camp this week, in an effort to familiarize officials with how it can be useful everyday, according to the organization’s commander.
“The reasons why AI adoption has been difficult for us is because we’re creatures of habit, one. A lot of us have been at this for 20 or 30 years, you’ve developed workflows and processes, and we fear change,” Maj. Gen. Jeffrey VanAntwerp said Tuesday at AFCEA’s TechNet Indo-Pacific conference in Hawaii. “We don’t want to do something differently. It seems inefficient at first.

The Second Front: PRC Micro-Occupation in the Philippines Part 2a described the salami-slicing of features within the Exclusive Economic Zone of the Philippines and throughout the West Philippine Sea. We presented a framework for assessing and developing operational concepts to mitigate the threat of continued PRC extraterritorial seizure of the Philippines’ territory, based on the PRC’s actions throughout the West Philippine Sea and in the Himalaya Mountains along the Line of Control with India, and the PRC’s stated objectives regarding Taiwan.
