The Aerospace Industries Association (AIA) published a new white paper titled Accelerating and Improving Decision Making: A Vision for Agentic AI in U.S. Defense‑Industrial Collaboration, which outlines how the next generation of artificial intelligence, known as Agentic AI, could fundamentally transform how the Pentagon collaborates with the defense industrial base to meet national security challenges. The paper also explains how growing complexity in global supply chains, acquisition processes, and technological innovation is straining traditional, human‑centric decision‑making systems.
