Leadership Team
The White House Executive Order on American AI Initiative signifies unquestionable effort to promote AI technology and innovation in the federal government as a whole. This initiative has further translated into agency-level undertakings such as the DOD Joint Artificial Intelligence Center (JAIC), and the GSA Artificial Intelligence Center of Excellence.
ATARC is backing the federal CTO’s regulations for executing AI in ways that will make the quality of citizens’ lives grow, as well as support the administration’s directions successfully, by sharing knowledge for productive uses of AI. United States security, knowledge, and economic growth depends on it. Real-budgeted AI solutions, based on data governance and accountability is the goal for the years ahead.

Working Groups
Data Interoperability
ATARC’s overall mission is to help accelerate new and emerging technology adoption within the Federal Government, and it has created thematic Working Groups to align with the primary IT focus areas currently prevalent in the technology landscape.
Tradewind’s mission is to assist in identifying methods to accelerate AI adoption throughout the DoD and uses special interest group activities to create collision spaces for ideas, processes, tools, and policies to be developed.
Our Joint Working Groups are led by IT thought leaders within government, academia and private industry. They promote collaboration within the Federal IT community, facilitate regular interaction between technology evangelists, and foster knowledge sharing and exploration of emerging technology solutions.
