- NASA Leaders to Host Agency Town Hall on Artificial Intelligence NASA Administrator Bill Nelson and Deputy Administrator Pam Melroy are hosting an employee town hall at 1 p.m. EDT Wednesday, May 22, to discuss how the agency is using and developing Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools to advance missions and research. The event will stream live on NASA+, NASA Television, and the agency’s website. The town [&#8230;]
- NASA Names First Chief Artificial Intelligence Officer NASA Administrator Bill Nelson on Monday named David Salvagnini as the agency’s new chief artificial intelligence (AI) officer, effective immediately. The role is an expansion of Salvagnini’s current role as chief data officer. A wide variety of AI tools are used by NASA to benefit humanity from supporting missions and research projects across the agency, [&#8230;]
- Digital Services Governance Framework Summary In responding to Milestone 4.2 of the Digital Government Strategy, NASA heeded the Advisory Group&#8217;s encouragement to &#8220;build upon existing structures and processes as much as possible.&#8221; To locate the gaps in existing governance structures, NASA&#8217;s Digital Strategy response team identified all necessary decisions concerning digital services, using the three layers pointed out in [&#8230;]
- NASA Issues New Space Security Best Practices Guide   As space missions and technologies grow increasingly interconnected, NASA has released the first iteration of its Space Security Best Practices Guide to bolster mission cybersecurity efforts for both public sector and private sector space activities. The guide represents a significant milestone in NASA’s commitment to ensuring the longevity and resilience of its space missions and [&#8230;]
- NASA and UC Berkeley Host Discussion on the Future of AI at Work  What does the rise of artificial intelligence mean for the workers of tomorrow? What could it mean for NASA? Leaders from government, academia, and commercial industries gathered earlier this fall to learn, discuss, and collaborate at the inaugural “The Future of Skills in the AI Era” symposium at NASA’s Ames Research Center in California’s Silicon [&#8230;]
- NASA Goddard Collaborates with Intel Corporation to Offer AI Learning NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, in collaboration with Intel Corporation, is working to inspire innovation and develop entrepreneurial education to prepare the next generation of scientists and engineers to tackle future Artificial Intelligence (AI) technological challenges.
- SPoRT’s Lightning Prediction Tool Provides Critical Weather Forecasting Support at Rock the South By Liz Junod A threat of lightning prevented more than 35,000 people from entering Rock the South –an outdoor country music festival in Cullman, Alabama, last month. The decision, a safety precaution prior to the event, was heavily influenced by NASA Marshall Space Flight Center’s Short-Term Prediction Research and Transition Center’s (SPoRT) new Lightning prediction [&#8230;]
- NASA-enabled AI Predictions May Give Time to Prepare for Solar Storms Like a tornado siren for life-threatening storms in America’s heartland, a new computer model that combines artificial intelligence (AI) and NASA satellite data could sound the alarm for dangerous space weather. The model uses AI to analyze spacecraft measurements of the solar wind (an unrelenting stream of material from the Sun) and predict where an [&#8230;]
- NASA Turns to AI to Design Mission Hardware Hardware designed by AI may resemble alien bones, but they weigh less, tolerate more stress, and require a fraction of the time parts designed by humans take to develop.
