Sherman said that there is no timeframe for when the department will release a request for information for JWCC 2.0 or when the effort will roll out next year, but added that DoD was “firmly committed to multi-cloud, multi-vendor, and this is what we’re going to be doing going forward.”

"We are living in more chaotic times than ever with crises around the world and we realize that everything is at stake to include our national security. As we think about the future, we are, as technologists, on the frontline to respond," DIA CIO Doug Cossa said.
“No vendor is going to label your data for you,” CDAO Craig Martell said. “So it's incumbent upon us as a centralized supporter of AI in the department to give you the tools, abilities, and consulting, to be able to build that labeled data so that you can hand it to industry, and they can build a model that works for you."
