🤖 Pentagon starts AI pilot for classification control

The Pentagon will begin a small-scale deployment within six months of the Air Force’s Automated Classification Management Environment to manage security classification and sensitive information handling. A memo signed by Deputy Defense Secretary Steve Feinberg says the system could become the department’s single digital reference for original classification decisions.

This marks a shift from dispersed human judgment toward a centralized AI-assisted process for one of DoD’s most sensitive administrative functions. The stated aim is to cut over-classification, reduce delays, and address a 140-million-page hardcopy backlog, while concentrating risk around model performance, oversight, and misclassification at scale.
