US EditionPentagon to adopt Palantir AI as core US military system, memo says
The Pentagon’s designation secures stable funding and streamlines adoption of Palantir’s Maven AI, used in thousands of targeted strikes and backed by a $1.3 billion contract ceiling.
- On March 9, Deputy Secretary of Defense Steve Feinberg designated Palantir's Maven Smart System as an official program of record, locking in long-term military use of the weapons-targeting technology across the Pentagon.
- Palantir originally developed the system for Project Maven in 2017 as a drone-imagery labeling program, which has since evolved into the primary AI operating system for the U.S. military.
- The Pentagon will shift Maven's oversight to the Chief Digital Artificial Intelligence Office within 30 days, while the Army will manage future contracting to streamline adoption across the Joint Force.
- A potential complication for Maven's adoption involves its integration of the Anthropic-made Claude AI model, as the Pentagon recently deemed Anthropic a supply chain risk.
- United Nations expert panels have warned that AI weapons targeting without human intervention raises significant ethical and security risks, though Palantir maintains its software does not make lethal decisions.
