The purpose of this conference is to provide information on the DISCORD program; promote additional discussion on this topic; address questions from potential proposers; and provide a forum for potential proposers to present their capabilities for teaming opportunities.<\/p>\n<p>The objective of the DISCORD program is to develop an Artificial Intelligence (AI)-native1 tactics engine that can incorporate live sensor data and high-fidelity simulation to rapidly generate tactics that continuously adapt to changes in the operational environment. The goal is to provide commanders with a portfolio of diverse strategies that can pivot dynamically in response to evolving conditions. The DARPA DISCORD effort implements Ender\u2019s Foundry, one of several warfighting Pace-Setting Projects (PSPs) established by the Department of War. Ender\u2019s Foundry\u2019s intent is to accelerate AI-enabled simulation capabilities to ensure we stay ahead of AI-enabled adversaries.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sam.gov\/workspace\/contract\/opp\/60a94bf650a84d3fb0bb524862e78401\/view\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Review the DARPA DISCORD Proposers Day announcement.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Source: SAM<\/p>\n<p><em>The right opportunity can be worth millions.
