- Description
Artificial intelligence (AI) has reached an age of maturity, and there is a growing desire for these technologies to be integrated into systems that can be used to give battlefield advantage by helping improve the speed, quality, and accuracy of decisions in the field while enabling autonomy and assistive automation. Due to the statistical nature of machine learning, prior work has focused on the robustness of AI-enabled systems at inference time to degradations in performance due to data distribution shifts from a highly dynamic battlefield environment. However, as early as 2014, AI has been demonstrated as manipulable given adversary control of the input [1]. Initial work has further confirmed the risks of data poisoning [2], physically constrained adversarial patches for evasion [3], and model stealing attacks [4]. However, these attacks are typically tested in simulated environments, or physical environments with relatively pristine control compared to what might be expected on a battlefield. Because adversarial AI attacks have not been practically demonstrated in operational settings, the operational security risks of AI-enabled battlefield systems remain unknown. Given the above, SABER will build an exemplar AI red team that can continuously integrate and employ emerging counter-AI techniques and tools, establishing a sustainable model for an evergreen operational AI red teaming process. Our AI red team will be operationally assessing AI-enabled autonomous ground and air systems that could be deployed in the next 1-3 years. To assist the AI red team, this solicitation seeks performers who can assist in surveying, assessing, selecting, developing, and employing state-of-the-art physical (including manufacturing/materials), adversarial AI (including digital), cyber and electronic warfare techniques and tools, or other relevant vectors for enabling the operational assessment of AI-enabled system development and deployment pipelines.
