Microsoft has developed AI for U.S. Intelligence agencies including the CIA. The model is based on GPT-4 architecture, and the operations of the technology will be offline.
Key Features and Development
AI Model also known as “Project Guardian” was developed within the timeline of 18 months, the AI model is majorly focused on security. The model is hosted on a static cloud with no internet connectivity, which prevents it from learning from any other unauthorized source.
Operational Capabilities and Security
The AI model is solely for analyzing and reading files, while it is not designed to be trained by given data. This feature helps in keeping the security and integrity of the information handled by the model. It can answer questions and can also provide powerful tools for data analysis.
Sheetal Patel, the assistant director of the CIA for the Transnational and Technology Mission Center, emphasized that the AI model will help them analyze situations easily and will be able to handle top-secret information while keeping a high level of security.
