About This AI Online Course
The U.S. Department of Defense desires to become an artificial intelligence-ready enterprise in the near future. In support of this evolution, its workforce—both military and civilian—must have the right level of knowledge and skills to best utilize AI solutions in support of mission requirements.
As the DoD continues to embrace AI as a force multiplier, it is imperative that the Department adopts responsible behavior, processes and outcomes that reflect its commitment to ethical principles of AI. Every DoD and government contractor employee supporting this mission space is responsible for escalating ethical and safety concerns of AI solutions.
Because AI enables autonomy, decision making and system execution at incredibly fast speeds, strong ethical considerations must go into its design and deployment. In this course, you delve into the five ethical AI principles adopted by the DoD and their applications to the AI lifecycle: design, development and test/evaluation.
What You Will Learn
- Define the five DoD ethical AI principles
- Describe the concepts of bias, limitations and discrimination in AI technology

This course is aligned with the DoD AI Strategy.
