LITTLE ROCK, Ark., Feb. 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Forge Institute, a leader in private-public partnerships for national defense, has entered into a multi-year Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) with the Information Directorate of the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL). This strategic alliance will focus on the advancement of analytic techniques for publicly available information (PAI), which are integral to enhancing the Air Force's cyber resilience and intelligence capabilities. This could potentially reshape the landscape of future Air Force multi-domain operations.


Key collaborations will be centered around the 188th Intelligence Surveillance and Reconnaissance Group (188th ISRG) of the Arkansas Air National Guard 188th Wing at Ebbing Air National Guard Base, Fort Smith, Arkansas.

This initiative aligns with the U.S. Military Strategy, which prioritizes PAI and artificial intelligence (AI) to maintain a strategic advantage across all domains of warfare. As global threats evolve, integrating PAI analytics with machine learning and pattern recognition will help refine intelligence gathering, optimize decision-making, and improve national security efforts.

The project will involve key collaborations with the Arkansas Air National Guard's 188th Intelligence Surveillance and Reconnaissance Group (188th ISRG) at Ebbing Air National Guard Base in Fort Smith, Arkansas. Colonel Michael Martin, commander of the 188th ISRG, affirmed that associations like the one with the Forge Institute give the Air Force the opportunity to leverage next-gen digital tools like robotic process automation, AI, and cloud capabilities to improve analytic methods.
Highlighting the strategic importance of this partnership, Brigadier General Olen C. Bridges, the Arkansas Adjutant General, added, "Private-public collaborations, like the one with Forge Institute, are essential for offering state-of-the-art capabilities to Arkansas' military missions. We're always looking for a competitive advantage on the ground, in the air, or in cyberspace to provide leaders the best information for decision making. Partnerships like these are what makes the Arkansas National Guard the premier destination for Arkansas' best and brightest minds."
As part of the CRADA, the Air Force and the Forge Institute will share their expertise in PAI analytics to understand and develop advanced analytic methods, thereby integrating training, AI, and next-gen cloud capabilities.
Lee Watson, Chairman and CEO of Forge Institute, stated, "This CRADA with the AFRL will spark innovative exchanges that support our warfighters and stimulate economic growth in Arkansas. We are proud to serve the United States Air Force and the Intelligence Community in advancing capabilities for national security."
By combining cutting-edge technology with mission-driven collaboration, Forge Institute continues to play a pivotal role in strengthening America's cyber resilience and defense readiness.

Here's hoping Rudy will make them have a look at Neuromorphic.

I think you go it right @Dolci but is it necessary to make fun of whoever is holding including me . People are here investing their life earning and you pop in and making fun does that give you good sleep. I guess some people get high poking fun at others

‘Smug’ comes to mind. Whatever it is, it’s pretty distasteful and not a great endorsement of the character behind it. I too liked this poster once upon a time…

 

[JoMo68]

Sorry, but I think you lack a moral compass Dolci.

We all have a choice in how we communicate to one another, and you have consistently chosen to do so by laughing at others' misfortunes.

Given the wealth you’ve gained from this stock, wouldn’t it be more humble for you to step back and graciously refrain from mocking those who are far less fortunate?

Perhaps graciously deciding not to "LOL" at other people could be a start.

You know, my beautiful father died suddenly very recently, not much more than one week ago actually, on the 23rd January at about 1am in the morning. He has always been my strongest advocate, my biggest influence and my brightest guiding light. I feel like I don't know what I will do without his guidance, but I also feel extremely grateful to have had such an incredible individual in my life. His greatest legacy to me was in teaching me the power of love.

"Love is what makes the world go around", he would remind me time and time again.

Laughing at others when they are struggling is not a virtue. Lifting people through love is.

Samsung, OpenAI, Softbank chiefs convene in Seoul to discuss AI partnership​

Expected to be discussed is a potential collaboration on cutting-edge AI technology, possibly including producing an AI-specific device, given Samsung's expertise in both computing hardware and semiconductors, according to speculations in Korea.

February 5, 2025
SEOUL – ChatGPT Creator OpenAI’s CEO Sam Altman, who is currently visiting Korea, is set to hold a meeting with Samsung Electronics Chairman Lee Jae-yong and Softbank Group CEO Masayoshi Son on Tuesday to share industry insights and technological collaboration, possibly including development of the world’s first AI-specific device.
According to industry sources, the three-way meeting has been organized upon Altman’s Seoul visit, coming after almost a year, to attend “Builder Lab,” Open AI’s technology forum with local developers.
The three leaders are expected to discuss potential collaboration on cutting-edge artificial intelligence technology, possibly including producing an AI-specific device, given Samsung’s expertise in both computing hardware and semiconductors, according to speculations in Korea.
Altman previously revealed that his company is planning to develop such an AI-specific hardware and that, they “hope to do it in partnership,” in an interview last month.
Speaking to Nikkei Asia on Jan. 27, Altman said, “it feels to me like AI is a big enough shift in how we can interact with computers that there ought to be a new kind of hardware,” adding that it would take several years to unveil a prototype.
He also said OpenAI is working on developing its own semiconductors.
Samsung, the world’s leading smartphone and semiconductor supplier, produces cutting-edge products deemed crucial in advanced AI applications, including High Bandwidth Memory, enterprise SSD chips and GDDR7.
OpenAI and Softbank Group may also ask Samsung to invest in their $500-billion Stargate venture project. Together with Oracle, the two companies announced their joint project for the large-scale development of AI infrastructure on US soil, a day after the inauguration of US President Donald Trump.
During his trip to Japan last month, Altman had asked Japanese firms to participate in Stargate.
Softbank is planning to invest over $15 billion directly in Stargate, as well as $15-25 billion in OpenAI.
Altman is officially visiting Korea for the third time, with his latest trip being in January 2024. At the time, he visited Samsung’s production facility in Pyeongtaek, Gyeonggi Province.
For Lee, it is his first public activity after an appellate court cleared him of all charges related to a contentious merger between Samsung affiliates on Monday.

Hi Bravo,

I'm sorry to hear about your dad. He had every right to be a proud father.

Not aware of that and I wouldn't expect that a Listed Company can circumvent an ASX Listing Rule which governs said listing and by which all companies have to abide by if wish to sit on the ASX.

Do you have a reference at all? TIA

See ...... Non-Executive Director Remuneration Policy

11. ANNUAL REVIEW & REPORTING
11.1 The Committee will review annually the compensation of the Chairman of the Board and other NEDs to determine whether:
11.1.1 an increase in fees should be considered; and/or
11.1.2 a market benchmarking review should be undertaken.
11.2 The Company will transparently report on its remuneration policy and approach in respect to all NEDs in the remuneration report issued as part of the Company’s Annual Report in compliance with the Corporations Act and the ASX Listing Rules.

This Policy was adopted by the Board effective 22 February 2023 and amended 22 September 2023, 07 December 2023 and 19 March 2024.

Thanks Xray.

See where you're coming from however I would suggest that is just an internal policy and process on the annual remuneration review and that an independent benchmark can be utilised where seen fit.

Imo that doesn't override the remuneration resolution that SHs vote on that can potentially create a strike if voted down as per the actual "Listing Rules", otherwise all companies could possibly look to water down or negate actual Listing Rules that they maybe don't agree with by including workarounds within their own policies.

Thanks Fullmoonfever,

IMO, It's all a play on words.

However, I am of the view, that if the Remuneration Committee was to provide a independently sourced "Market Benchmark Review" statement, then that would most likely alleviate many concerns that some S/holders have concerning the amount of remuneration our Directors and Non-Executive Directors receive, thus in turn avoiding any potential Strike actions/situations. I believe that most s/holders here would be more willing to accept that type of financial assessment disclosure rather than the committee just pulling figures out from the air or from other unknown sources.

Really sorry to hear your sad news Bravo.
Take comfort in the fact that it was quick.
When my father died, it was a long, drawn out, mostly unpleasant affair that he would have preferred not to have endured.
And when he at last went, we were all grateful that he was finally beyond suffering.
I'm glad for you that your Dad was such a positive figure in your life, and, as others have testified, he would be nothing but proud of the wonderful person you have become. xo
